What's the easiest way to track stats on a few dozen domain names?

A friend of mine owns a few hundred domain names, all related to his business (medical sales). Most are coming up soon for expiration, so he asked for my advice for what to do with them. Whether to keep them or drop them. Most are useless, but a few may be driving a small bit of traffic. I figure about 25 of them may have a tiny benefit to keeping.

So, my question is, what's the best way to monitor the traffic of about 25 domain names? I want to see which are legitimately driving traffic & which are worthless.

Thanks

    It is okay to contact me! I have been developing software since 1999, creating many popular products like phpLD.

    If the sites are wordpress sites, there's a ton of free stat-tracking plug-ins. Otherwise, I would suggest google analytics because it's easy to set up and install.

    Regardless of your decision, tracking stats is a vital part of your online business. If you had 5 brick and mortar stores, you'd want to track and see which stores were getting the most traffic and which ones were converting the best, and online stores/websites are no different
