My recommendation: AWStats (free Open Source)
What I hear is good: Urchin (commercial)
Google Analytics provides Urchin-generated statistics, but it slows down
pages which get loaded (also needs embedment of code, i.e. labor). So, all
in all, the last option entails a cost (not financial), as well as benefits.

I can't think of a tool that will achieve this, but if your IP addresses
reside on the same C/D block, e.g. 145.24.24.*, then you could quickly scan
the log the file and remove any lines that match the pattern in question. I
am sure that a built-in GNU/Linux tool can achieve this, but it needs some
research.
Best wishes,
