[Catalyst] number of users

[Ian Docherty]

It depends what you mean by 'logged on'.

For example, if a user logs into the system, reads a few pages, then 
goes to an external web site, or even closes their browser, how would 
you know?

What if they come back before their session times out?

The only definition that I would think you could use is how many 'live' 
sessions are there and for this you would have to look at your session 
store. With Session::Store::File it uses |Cache::FileCache and I can't 
see any direct way of reading how many sessions are still active. You 
would have to look at the code I think.
