Login metrics from idp-profile.log

[Glenn Wearen]

Take a look at the Raptor project, there's also some contributed stuff on the wiki, here in Edugate we use Cactii with simple scripts to parse the audit and process log (we also use Raptor with an RRDgraph at the front-end).

I've been tasked to begin gathering metrics related to login on our idp.  The only way I can think to do this is to write some scripts that parse through the idp-process.log.  I'll have to figure out what the best messages to parse on are.  Does anyone have any other thoughts on  how to gather/generate any metrics?  Looking to determine how many logins occurred per day (or some other time period), both successful and otherwise.
