Just a thought, but you could use a little php script to do that.
would be what you would use for the banner. And banner.php could look something like this:
Very very basic, but you get the idea. It would be better to write to sql, and keep in mind if you do anything other then direct link to an offer it will cause some sort of delay (unavoidable).

<a href="http://www.example.com/banner.php?id=1"><img src.... /></a>would be what you would use for the banner. And banner.php could look something like this:
PHP:
<?php
$file = fopen('data.txt', 'w');
fwrite($file, $_GET['id'] . '\n');
fclose($file);

You probably want to use this instead:
Otherwise, you will truncate the file every time someone clicks on the banner.
I'd actually do this:
Only one line.
