 Thanks Amos. I don't think the clientdb features you mentioned are enabled, I'm getting a command not found.Also I don't see anything configured for logging in squid.conf (I don't know if there is any other place for it)
bash-3.00# ps -ef|grep squidroot      2467     1  0  2020 ?        00:00:00 /usr/squid/sbin/squidnobody    2471  2467  0  2020 ?        07:49:45 (squid)root     28018 20110  0 13:12 pts/0    00:00:00 grep squid
bash-3.00# /usr/squid/sbin/squid -vSquid Cache: Version 2.6.STABLE13configure options: '--prefix=/usr/squid' 'CC=gcc' 'CFLAGS=-O3 -g'
bash-3.00# squidclient mgr:client_list | grep "Address"bash: squidclient: command not foundbash-3.00#
bash-3.00# grep -i log squid.confbash-3.00#

The machine has been up since last July and I'm a bit concerned to bounce squid to see if it will start writing to access.log or not as its used by several prod systems.
Thanks muchuzee

That is a bit worrying. Find out why access.log is empty.

If your proxy has clientdb features enabled you can use the cache 
manager "client_list" to fetch a list of all the clients that have been 
using the proxy.

Try command:
  squidclient mgr:client_list | grep "Address"
