We are a public sector information service, not a major commercial site, and we’ve had our web stats package for many months
We’ve pored over the numbers and got past the basic obvious pitfalls (we think…)
Now we are trying to figure out some of the trickier questions – like the impact of caching, real vs “one page” visitors etc

There must be hundred of us doing the same, trying to make sense of all this data, looking for practical advice somewhere between the hype of the vendors and the (true but unhelpful) Jeffrey Goldberg “Why web usage statistics are (worse than) meaningless”

Does the John Sherwell book
http://digbig.com/4crjg
tell us everything we need to know?
Can anyone recommend training courses for this level?
Is there a forum where web stats people go to compare headaches?
