So far I've seen flurry and Mixpanel.
Mixpanel appears to be the most interesting: http://mixpanel.com/iphone-analytics/ and has a flexible API.
However still wondering what else is out there and what other people might be using, thanks!

you could also use any of the existing web analytics tools out there, like google analytics, yahoo web analytics, omniture site catalyst, etc... Usually it's done with javascript, but it boils down to an image request being made, with parameters added to the src url. So really all you need to do is inside your app, make image requests.
There is an open source just published called warefeed that is very simple and that you can easily extend for the iPhone: http://www.warefeed.com
Here is a relatively recent article listing 7 of them, but there are literally dozens of options out there.

I have personally used Admob, Google Analytics, and now Omniture. Omniture is causing me some headaches at the moment, but they were all about the same in terms of implementation details. I'd lean toward Google if you have a choice, it was probably the simplest in terms of dev time.
Google Analytics SDK is available for iOS: http://code.google.com/mobile/analytics/docs/iphone/
