max(count() is invalid.
aggregate function calls may not be nested

If more than 1 user has the most activity only one is listed.

Try:

SELECT user_id, COUNT(event_id)
   FROM log
   GROUP BY (user_id)
   HAVING COUNT(event_id) = (SELECT max(l.ct) FROM
         (SELECT count(event_id) AS ct FROM log GROUP BY user_id) AS l)
   ORDER BY user_id;
