It's possible to save this kind of data in the file itself (in a hidden way) and then extract it when it is submitted back to you.

However, if the file is opened in an application that doesn't support scripting that won't work, of course...

Also, it relies on the user saving the file after each use. If they open the file, view it and then close it without saving the usage data will be lost.
