+summary: 'Measure number of daily, weekly and monthly active users'
+...
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+This module calculates the number of daily, weekly and monthly active users -
+often abbreviated as DAU, WAU and MAU.
+
+These metrics are more accurate for determining how many people are actually
+using a service. For example simply counting registered accounts will typically
+include many dormant accounts that aren't really being used. Many servers also
+track the number of connected users. This is a useful metric for many purposes,
+but it is generally lower than the actual number of users - because some users
+may only connect at certain times of day.
+
+The module defines "activity" as any login/logout event during the time period,
+and for this it depends on mod_lastlog2 being loaded (it reads the data stored
+by mod_lastlog2). Each individual user is only counted once.
+
+"Daily" means any event within the past 24 hours, "weekly" means within the
+past 7 days, and "monthly" means within the past 30 days.
+
+Details
+=======
+
+The user count is calculated shortly after startup, and then recalculated
+hourly after that.
+
+Metrics are exported using Prosody's built-in statistics API.
+
+There is no configuration for this module.
+
+Compatibility
+=============
+
+Requires Prosody 0.11 or later with mod_lastlog2 enabled.
