I'm pretty sure Google Analytics can do this and most services will support simple drag and drop systems to enable google analytics quickly.

Thanks Brandin, I did not know of this Google page extension! This would in fact be the easiest for sure but it seems a bit limited as well.

Also Even though I am connected to Google analytics, it does not show my data for some of my sites.

You'll need to go through the google webmaster setup process to confirm control of the domains in order to unlock all of the features.

The full propagation period can sometimes take up to 24 hours.

Additionally some features may be limited by your users' browsers. Safari, for example, blocks some of the advanced cookie tracking Google uses, but that should not effect the heat map.
