Does a Tool for the analyzation of JBoss log files exist?

Question

I have a JBoss 6 Server running which generates a big log file.

Does a tool exist, which allows me to analyse the log file (How often did a specific error occur? When did it occur? How many INFO / WARNING / ERROR messages are there, ...)?

I've heard of log4j, but it seems as if it would only allow me to set up a configuration for logging options. Am I right?

If no GUI tools, do you know a library/module/scripts for Python/PHP which helps me to parse the log file?
