Can you measure widget interactions?

All of our course home pages have two widgets on them:

  • "Recommend this course" - it's a graphic with a <a href> mailto URL. It prepopulates an email with the course name and Discovery URL so that coworkers can automatically email the course link to their colleagues.
  • "Need help?" - It's a graphic with a <a href> mailto URL. It prepopulates an email to our help desk with the course name in the subject line.

Does anyone know a way to measure how often people are clicking on these widgets? Or behind the scenes, is there something I could insert into the URLs that would help measure usage?
