you say 'servers': plural, which leads me to think you're doing
load balancing or otherwise have multiple servers which seems
like another layer to consider for your puzzle.

I would consider something like splunk (or more likely one of the
free alternatives) and a setup like:
(users) ---public interface --> [webserver] -private interface --\
-- for logs-->[splunk/log collector]<----(developers)
and make sure there are acls/firewall rules in place to just allow
your developers access (http logs may well include some data that
you don't want to get out to the public, like if someone implements a
cgi as a get instead of a post but has sensitive data included)
