Hartmut,

Thanks!  This should nicely replace some (probably buggy) ad-hoc 
code of mine :-)

I'm surprised: the python-build-system should take care of this. 
Does the package fail without it?  How?

IP addresses; log files.

I'm not a fan of the way the Pypi importer needlessly indents 
home-page and synopsis (both fit on one line just fine), but it's 
up to you.

As above, so below: ‘log files’ &c.

Web server.  I'd drop ‘software’ and say ‘piped directly’.

‘read from’.

Otherwise LGTM!

You are right, this is not required. I copied this without questioning
from some other python application (don't remember which one).

I rephrased this into "Depending on your Web server, the log entries may
be piped to Anonip directly
or via a FIFO (named pipe)."  This emphases on piping
