Tracking traffic on a htaccess redirect possible?

[oDb]

I'm running a htaccess to my cpa company but want to track the traffic. Anyway of tracking when using a htaccess.

example traffic comes from a forum>myspage(htaccess)>redirects traffic if coming from forum straight to cpa network.

would have to have a tracking script to do that. .htaccess can only foward or rewrite the urls and has nothing to do with tracking anything

Pretty sure you can see the traffic and the redirect in the apache logs.

Yes you can log .htaccess forwards when using mod_rewrite.

As described here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current...d_rewrite.html
With an example here: http://perishablepress.com/roll-your...e-rewrite-log/

If you can't use mod_rewrite for any reason you can do a quick awk on the Apache log to extract the relevant information. The log file is basically a space delimited spreadsheet and can be parsed easily with common utilities.
