https://rrregain.com does this as a service. There are others as well but most do not use your own domain.

Interesting, do you know if they rely on the same principle of using several domains, making it harder to block?

I'm not sure, it uses your own domain, thus www.google-analytics.com becomes yourdomain.com/analytics.js. Not all requests are proxied, only the ones blocked by adblockers.

Taking this further, you could have your server send an event to GA when /index.html is requested, this can even be from tail -f access_log. No one will know GA was requested.

In general, you wouldn't be able to access third-party cookies this way, though.
