Sounds like the software is configured with an access-list restriction
or .htaccess file.  Check the configuration for something like:

<Location /usage>
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 127.0.0.1
    Allow from ::1
    # Allow from .example.com
</Location>

Might be <Directory /xxx> instead of Location, but purpose is the same
in terms of the limits (the allow from lines)

You might also look for a .htaccess file in the document root for that
software and see if it is limiting access to only localhost (or 127.0.0.1)
