  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

  Note: There is no upgrade you can purchase that changes this. There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we bloggers cannot install any plugins. To have plugins and Google Analytics you need to hire a web host and set up your own self hosted WordPress.org install. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
