What is the best way to log information about the users activity

I have a general question about the best practice in Nuxeo.
We have an application that generates PDF documents by some templates. Nuxeo is used to store the parameters of templates and for PDF generation. The client is build on Flex.
We need to add the functionality to log users activities somewhere. This information will be used to get statistics about the usage of the system.

What is the best way of doing this? The most obvious and simplest way is to get access to database (direct or through Hibernate) and store / find this information there. Or should we create a special document type and add such document to the system for every event?

Thanks

Nuxeo offers the NXAudit service which logs user/document activity

Search for nxaudit in this page:

http://doc.nuxeo.org/5.2/books/nuxeo-book/html/admin-database-configuration.html

By default these logs are stored in the table nxaudit_log (IIRC).

It seems this is what we need. Though, we cannot use existing event types because we don't modify our templates (documents), but just use them to generate PDF, we can create our custom even type.

Thank you!
