For stats? CGI. Much less system resources are used. PHP is an interpreter which is usually slower than a well compiled CGI script. Someone here said Assembly. A CGI writting in assembly could be blazing fast with hardly any use of system resources. Best would be a CGI hooked up to a port. That would mean no procecss would have to be created each time the program has to do something.
If you're not counting too high PHP is much easier though. Development and maintanance are easier 'cause a lot of usefull tools for the Internet are already built in. This would be a hell of a job in Assembly
