That is because squid doesn't pass the authentication information to
the web server (nor should it!).

You can't easily.

HTTP is a stateless protocol. Nobody is "logged in", they just make
requests.
You could fake this by importing access log entries into a database and
then searching for people who have made requests in the recent past
(e.g. in the last five minutes).
