At Karanbir's request, I am posting the command I used to generate my stats, however inelegant it may be.  You need to modify the log file path (and perhaps switch to cat instead of zcat if your logs aren't compressed).  Also, replace the 5 with a 4 to get CentOS 4 results.

zcat /var/log/httpd/mirror.steadfast.net.access_log.*.gz | grep -ve '\(404\|206\)' | awk '{ print $7 }' | grep '/centos/5.*\.iso$' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
