Off the top of my head, ensure the log file format is a normal type (and/or
defined for AWStats).  Also, if I remember correctly, you may need to reset
the 'counter' for AWStats and reprocess the logs if you had an early problem
with configuration (since it will now consider those logs processed even
while it shows 'no results' for the time in question.)

I just setup AWStats, but didn't run into any problems.  I'd be glad to help
though.
