It sounds like your web statistics are inside your website, in an ordinary
folder.
If this is the case, you do not want search engines to look at the stats.
files, and broken links here are irrevelant as far as search engines are
concerned.
If your host supports subwebs, convert the stats folder to a subweb (check
with your host to see if this will affect the stats production process -
usually it does not). This will remove any broken links in this folder from
your reports (though the broken links will still be there), and will also
save a lot of problems when you next publish the site.
If the stats folder is an integral part of your site (and not the website
stats), then double click the broken link in the page, then either
1- click "Edit Page" and when the page loads find the link and change it to
the correct link, or remove it.
-or-
2- double click the broken link in the report, and use the browse button to
browse to the correct page, then choose Replace to replace the broken link
with the correct one.
