Telnet into the box as admin.
su to root
run: "/usr/admserv/cgi-bin/.cobalt/webUsage/parseReport.pl -l /dev/null
-a /dev/null /usr/admserv/html/.cobalt/webUsage"

This will reset the web stats page.  If you want to start fresh
you need to remove the log file also.  Just do '>
/var/log/httpd/home-acceess'.
That will empty out the log file.

No need to reboot, but you do need to telnet into the box.
