Another idea: in case you're already using Google Analytics, and need a 
cache-proof solution, there's also the Google Analytics API module 
(http://drupal.org/project/google_analytics_api), which allows you to 
access Analytics data remotely. Pro: it's off-loaded from your own 
server. Contra: it's not real-time.

The Google Analytics Counter module 
(http://drupal.org/project/google_analytics_counter) is based on this 
API and might already nearly do what you need.
