Heh, I didn't think this would be a simple process.
If the site is maxing out the "free" version of Google Analytics, that means 10M+ impressions/hits (not page views) a month which is already saying something.
There is certainly some filtering that can be done in the free version that would arrive at some useful metrics for everyone.
Jonathan, what makes you think the data isn't "correct" (or being collected correctly)?
