=nonsearch_httpd_log_links() is a script macro to report non-search links in the HTTPD log file.

nonsearch_httpd_log_links(site, s)
 
        init
                status =piktstatus
                level =piktlevel
                task "Report new non-search httpd log links"
                input logfile "=httpd_logdir/access_log_(site)"
                filter "=httpd_cgibin_root/webstats.pl -f -(s) -nsl |
                        =sort | =uniq -c | =sort +0n"
        rule
                output mail $inlin
