You can do this in one of two ways:
- If you run CRM On-Premise, and use AD Authentication only, then you can use the IIS logs - see http://blogs.msdn.com/crm/archive/2009/04/08/crm-usage-reporting-unleashed.aspx
- Otherwise, the only way to handle this would be to write a plugin on common messages (e.g. Retrieve, RetrieveMultiple) to record user activity, however this would add some load onto system
Note that CRM doesn't have the concpet of a logout, all you have is a sequence of requests

As of rollup 5 for CRM 2011 you can also get an approximation through the audit tool.
