How are our subdomains displayed in search engine results?

Are they displayed as http://www.site1.com/site2 or are they displayed as http://www.site2.com?

It depends on whether they are add on domains or just subs. If they're add-on domains then they'll show as per your second example. If they're just subs then they'll be as your first.

Oooops... correction, I meant to say add-on domains... but what's the difference between an add-on and a sub?

An add on domain has it's own URL: www.mysaddondomain.com whereas a subdomain uses the URL of your main domain as in: www.mysubdomain.mymaindomain.com

Add ons are much better for business and SE's, but you need to buy the domain name that you want to use. Apart from the above - they work very similarly. You can access both lots of awstats (add-on and sub) through the Sub domain Awstats button in your Control Panel.
