A browser is, after all, a user-agent. The web was designed this way for a reason. Would I be breaking some sort of inferred agreement if I browsed with no Javascript enabled at all? In any case, a site server logs should provide ample information for analytics, unless they are measuring mouse movements or scrolling etc.
