   A basic question for you – do you have a blocking cookie for your own machine set on Statscounter. Cause if you do then that might account for part of the difference?

   nope, not at this point in time anyway, which puzzles me a little. i don’t have analytics installed on any other site so i can’t really compare to be perfectly honest!

   Just had a look at yesterday for Pure Play on the 3 stats services I use. Here are the results Unique Visitors/Page Views:

   Statscounter: 58/118
   Analytics: 49/126
   Measuremap: 51

   So not too different – and with Statscounter not including my visits then they could all be close enough.

   On yours it could be that they are measuring a day differently with different time zones and if you have heavy traffic from the US in the evening that could get put into today by Statscounter as they are Irish?

   quite a possibility. might leave it slide a few days and take a closer look at it. i’ve activated the blocking cookie at statcounter, everything else seems to be in the right place. cheers keith

   yeah, well, it stopped registrations anyway. they’ve made it invitation only for a while, if you’ve a code they’ll let you in, either that or you wait for them to open back up to the public
