"Reporting" could mean any number of things..

Explain more clearly what you want it to do.

AWstats is a logfile analyzer (mostly used for Apache) and has nothing to do with reporting..

I have been trying to find a PHP report-engine like thingy myself but have had little luck, the few projects I found searching had either no functional code, or was very limited/specific... I have had some thoughts about creating something based entirely on xml, using xpath to query data (can add a layer to get the data from a RDBMS), and some XML shcema to define the report, details and grouping and totals etc and XSL to output it.. but, its the problem many have, there is no spare time to do it..
