  There is no upgrade you can purchase here that provides FTP access and the ability to install plugins like Google Analytics on a free hosted WordPress.com blog. If you want that then you will have to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up your own WordPress.org install.

  From the support doc:

  Additional Info
  Can I use Google Analytics?
  No, Google Analytics cannot be used on WordPress.com blogs at this time. http://en.support.wordpress.com/stats/#additional-info

  There is no upgrade you can buy that changes that reality. For Google Analytics you need a WordPress.ORG install. Here’s the comparison http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
