Problem with Stats

I have a question I hope you can help me with. I was following the instructions about adding the stats to a url so a client could see them at "www.sitename.com/stats" I did that for a new site I setup yesturday. And now there are no stats for any site (using webalizer)

Login to your hosting account via ssh.
Navigate to your public_html directory by running the following command

cd public_html

Once there, type the following:
vi .htaccess

once that loads, hit your i key, and type the following:
Options +FollowSymLinks

Once that is done, hit your Esc (escape) key, and type the following:
:wq

Next, run the following command
ln -s ~/tmp/webalizer stats

you can replace the "stats" part of that command with name you want to use in order to access your website statistics.

After that, run the following commands

chmod 755 ~/tmp
chmod 755 ~/tmp/webalizer

now you can access www.yoursite.com/stats/ http://www.yoursite.com/stats/ to access your webalizer statistics

the only difference what at the begining... I did cd public_html and then cd sitename to get into that directory of were I wanted the stats.

when I ftp into the server I can see the stats directory in the site I wanted it to create it in...but thats it..

I looked on the server also in the /tmp/webalizer directory and I don't see anything in there either.
