The first thing to do is to find out where Webalizer is picking up the site name.  If you installed from the Cobalt-aid.sourceforge.net Webalizer 2.01 package, the name is take from the name on the symbolic link in the /home/sites directory.  The script that does this is /usr/bin/webalizer2.pl and you would be looking at the variable $asite as it is passed into the -n option on the webalizer command.

Other packages may (and probably do) operate differently.
