Please see my CV and my post in the forum. There already is an "Update now" link in awstats. On the other hand if you want I am willing to either 1) remotely log in to your unix machine by telnet or ssh and set up a cron job for you, or 2) create a password protected perl cgi program which will in fact run awstats as you desire. The password is needed because it will be doing something that requires high cpu use and may also require making the perl program run as a superuser. Personally I think it is a bad idea to add any other buttons. Just put it in a cron job. Escrow for me to do the job.
