Most bloggers nowadays use Feedburner to monitor their feed statistics. While the tracking their is extremely useful by itself, a few enterprising web developers have used the Feed Awareness API to add even new functions to Feedburner. The one program that stands out from the rest is BlogPerfume’s Feed Analysis.
WHAT DOES IT DO?
It makes lots of fancy charts. No, really, that’s pretty much it. Still, those charts are exceedingly useful for seeing how your subscriber count has risen over time. It also predicts your subscribers after 3/6/12 months if you keep expanding at your current rate, and it’s fun to look at approximately where you’ll be in the future (apparently, I’ll have 2.5k readers within a year. Remember that the metric for determining blog popularity is whether your RSS count can be expressed in “k.” If you can, then you are automatically a top blogger).

Even if you’re not a stat junkie, you need to check Feed Analysis out.
