If, like me, you use the current CVS version of AWStats, you may have found that, since they recently added Sapo to its list of known search engines, if your web site is located in Portugal (like mine are), your top search query is, suddenly, “Resumo“. Even if your site is in English. 
“Resumo” is, in this context, Portuguese for “short version“, and it’s included by default in all Sapo queries. But why is this happening?
I’ve tracked it down to an AWStats bug, which I reported to the author, along with a patch. That patch, in addition to fixing that problem, also adds support for Clix queries. For more details, including the patch itself, please visit the SourceForge page for this bug.

Hi, in our search, you should use the ‘q’ parameter. ‘resumo’ is a value for the ‘barra’ parameter. It’s the default value but it is not in any means mandatory.
PS: If you need any help or info about sapo search, please contact me via my email on this reply form.
Best regards,

João: I understood that.
My patch fixes it, though the main problem was an empty field, which made AWStats ignore everything else in that section of the file.
After applying the patch, or waiting for the author to add it to AWStats, Sapo (and Clix) queries will be properly parsed.
