What is stopping a competitor of a website, setting up a google anyalitics account and tracking and recording the web stats of their competitors website?...they would have many confidential figures such as page views ect?

It's not possible because the analytics code has to be placed within the code of the site itself. The competitor would need access to the site to place their own analytics code to get the data.
