The original poster did not explicitly state it, but this kind of question
usually comes up in the context of employers trying to determine how
much time an employeee spends visiting sites which do not appear to be
work-related.  And although this is not the answer they want to hear,
it's impossible to tell.  You can make a list of which web pages were
hit and at what time, but you can't determine how much time was spent
on a particular site.
