From the Google Analytics blog <quote> Now anyone with a website can instantly create one for free by simply by visiting google.com/analytics or by clicking on the "Analytics" tab within AdWords.

When we founded Urchin we actually had an ad-based business model where we were able to give the product away for free. It didn't last and we eventually went with a paid model. But when our company was acquired in April 2005 we worked with Google to determine a way to give it away for free again, this time with no ads. By doing this, we're able to give all websites – large and small – the tools you need to better serve your customers, make more money, and improve the web experience for everyone. </quote>
Now Google uses urchin extensively through all it's web sites; my logic is this, if it's good enough for Google, it's probably good enough for me :D
