I'm not sure if I got you right: Are you trying to identify unwanted sites
from your access.log? Maybe the blacklists from SquidGuard can be of any
help:

http://www.squidguard.org/blacklists.html

If you compare the sites from your access logfile with the blacklists, you
should be able to figure out which are unwanted sites. You would need to
write a script comparing the files and reporting any hits.

Peter
