Yahoo has also joined the web analytics bandwagon now. After acquiring IndexTools, they have given birth to Yahoo! Web Analytics.

Yahoo! Web Analytics is an enterprise site analytics tool that provides real-time insight into visitor behavior on your website. Using its powerful tools and dashboard widgets, online marketers and website designers can enhance the visitor experience, increase sales and reduce marketing costs.

It looks to be a very similar service to Google Analytics, but one thing that makes it stand up from Google Analytics is its real-time reporting feature. Even the user interface is that of Google Analytics. Currently it is open only to a few beta testers, advertisers and application developers.
