A system for tracking visitors' access to web content using a searchable and size-constrained local log repository, the system comprising: one or more processors; a repository indexer, using the one or more processors, that receives visitor logs from a remote source and indexes the received visitor logs to include a usage field, each visitor log indicating a content object requested by a visitor and a date, the usage field indicating at least one of when or how frequently an associated visitor log was accessed from a local log repository by a report request manager; the local log repository, the local log repository storing in memory the visitor logs received and indexed by the repository indexer and the local log repository being size constrained; a repository manager, using the one or more processors, that removes a subset of the visitor logs in the local log repository based on parameters within the subset of the visitor logs' usage field; and the report request manager, using the one or more processors, wherein the report request manager: receives a request from a requestor for a report indicating visitors' access to a content object, searches for visitor logs within the local log repository pertinent to the request, aggregates data across the visitor logs responsive to the search, and generates a report presenting the aggregated data.
