Tracking session duration

In an effort to make a more robust user statistics plugin; I'd like to keep statistics on how long users are on my site. How can I tell when someone's session dies so that I can track the time?

Actually, that's next to impossible. You won't notice when someone leaves the site without logging out. So all you would record is when the session times out - but the visitor may have left the site long before that time.
In other words: Such stats are worthless (IMO, anyway).
bye, Dirk
