executing webalizer from crontab

I am trying to make webalizer run once every hour by placing an entry in my
crontab. I edit my crontab by typing

crontab -e

then add the following line

0 * * * * root /usr/local/bin/webalizer

but Webalizer does not update the stats, so I tried

0 * * * * root /usr/local/bin/webalizer | mail allan

to ensure that it was attempting and every hour. I get a blank mail, but
webalizer still doesnt update the stats.
Does anybody know what I`m doing wrong?

Thanks
Allan

This line is illegally formatted. The "root" is incorrect.

Not surprising.

Yes. You do.
