XF 1.5 Forum stats

Is there a way to keep track of traffic by forum?

That would require custom development or an add-on if one exists,

I had the idea of using conditional statements to place a unique tiny graphic in a template in each of my forums. The graphics will be on my server. I could then use google analytics to check number of views for each forum.

First impression ... Do you think this would work, or will I be wasting my time?

That may work but it's not something I have heard of before.

You can always try - it won't cause any issues and just requires conditional statements utilising the node ID.

You might try @AndyB's Forum View or his Forum List Count add-ons.
