You set it to run once per day against the logs for that website... normally around midnight. The loads aren't that bad. The reporting I think defaults to 12 months of stored data which is stored normally in a directory in the web root for that website. That directory of course can be protected by something like htaccess. <<
Just a heads up: the Webalizer report logs are not managed by logrotate, and will continue to accumulate indefinitely. I had a server fall over a couple of months ago when /var filled up; after a little du'ing, I discovered that the thing had three and a half years' worth of Webalizer logs taking up a lot of space.
