			Awstats is statically generated content with graphs for most of the things you requested. For example, here's the landing page for the microfactory site:

			* https://awstats.opensourceecology.org:4443/awstats.microfactory.opensourceecology.org.html

			Note that HTTP referer headers (when not omitted) tell a webserver where the user came _from_ when requesting content. As such, it allows awstats to record sites/pages from which a user came _from_, but we can't know where they go _to_ when they leave our site (as that request is sent not to us, but to wherever they went) -- barring some sketchy scripting
			* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_referer

			I have no idea what Adwords conversions are or how that would integrate into Google Analytics or awstats.
