Currently there is support for a handful of Half-Life "MODs" including Counter-Strike, Day of Defeat, and Natural Selection. PsychoStats gathers statistics from the log files that game servers create by reading through the logs and then calculating detailed statistics for players, maps, weapons and clans. These detailed statistics are stored in a MySQL database which are then viewed online from your website using a set of PHP web pages.
