Analog doesn't have a "bytes in" report. The File Size report can be 
used to report on either "Bytes In", or "Bytes Out", but it defaults to 
"Bytes Out". If you want it to report on "Bytes In" instead, then you 
just need to craft a LOGFORMAT that specifies %b in the "Bytes In" field.

That explains why your earlier reports weren't giving you what you 
expected - the "File Size" report is based on the %b field, and the %b 
fields in your example lines were 117, 6918, 117, 60 and 124.

I'm not sure that this is explicitly mentioned anywhere in the 
documentation, but it's because for the vast majority of websites, the 
"inbound bandwidth" is irrelevant - it's not even logged in most cases. 
For those sites that care more about inbound than outbound bandwidth, 
it's easy to modify the LOGFORMAT to report on it.
