You would need to create a users-by-period report which would shows the
user active on each giving day (you could even use a filter to restrict
the report to a given period like sat and sun).

You create new report by writing a report specification (which is only
a XML file specifying the report's parameters, description, title and
operators). Documentation on this is rather terse: the XML format is
described in a reference style in the developer's manual, but we need
some tutorial on this. The easiest way to write a new one is by looking
at one which is near of what you want. The report specifications for the
proxy schema can be found in <prefix>/share/lire/reports/proxy

The user manual has a chapter on the report configuration file
(proxy.cfg) which lists the specification used to build the complete
report.

Don't hesitate to post on this list again if you need more help on
this.

Kind regards
