But aren't they already saved in the apache logs? It would be expensive
to parse them, true, but this would be a rare case for those who are
not accepting cookies. Or at the very least, what if the non-mirror
site (e.g. www.postgresql.org) used a slightly different system that
did not rely on the cookie/image scheme?

Just trying to drum up revenue for our advertisers, after all..  :)
