They grow as big as you configure them on the server and you keep them for as long as you want. Usually logrotate is used to keep them to a reasonable size.

From what I can tell gostats is some kind of third party service that collects the statistics, probably by adding a hidden image or javascript on your page. They operate completely differently, so you are limited to whatever they provide.
