The event is logged as sam.assessment.thread_submit instead of sam.assessment.autosubmit because automatic submission is another feature ().

The method to call to construct an event with an explicit context (=siteid) is:
EventTrackingService.newEvent:
Event newEvent(String event,
String resource,
String context,
boolean modify,
int priority)
Construct a Event object.
Parameters:
event - The Event id.
resource - The resource reference.
context - The Event's context (may be null).
modify - Set to true if this event caused a resource modification, false if it was just an access.
priority - The Event's notification priority. Use NotificationService.NOTI_OPTIONAL as default.
Returns:
A new Event object that can be used with this service.
You'd get the site id from the assessment information. Normally posting an event from a tool automatically includes the context because the event service can find it out from the tool placement information, but if a thread which isn't executing in a tool placement (e.g. timer thread or another servlet) posts an event, then it should explicitly set the context so it can be recorded in the event for applications like SiteStats.
If a user starts a timed assessment then closes the browser without submitting, when the assessment is auto-submitted on the server, no event is posted.
An event should be posted for this, similar to sam.assessment.submit, but with some difference to identify it as an auto submission, e.g. sam.assessment.autosubmit
The site context (site id) should also be explicitly passed to newEvent() using the 2-6-x expanded form which includes a context parameter.
