Analog can't do it without running multiple times because of the points
mentioned in that FAQ entry.

When I've needed to do this in the past I've used Analog to generate to
components and scripted it to generate the reports that I then pulled into
Excel to build the pivot table. Basically, like you are suggesting. With
some small script writing you could run Analog get just a user report, pars=
e
that for use names, then run Analog for each user's trafffic.

You can choose OUTPUT COMPUTER <http://analog.cx/docs/compout.html> for
something that well generate a CSV table that you can then work from. Note
that this works best for a single report (like Request Report) -- otherwise
you'll need to use some programming magic in your spreadsheet to find the
end of one report and the beginning of another.
