Well, to answer anyway, WT counts some redirects as "successful requests" that Analog does not. > Item E, however, bugs me.

"Sessions" is something that WT estimates (and by most accounts very poorly.) It does not represent the number of distinct IP addresses in the logs. It is meant to represent the number of distinct user sessions. Read http://www.analog.cx/docs/webworks.html as to why that's not easily counted and why Analog does not do it. -- Jeremy Wadsack Wadsack-Allen Digital Group +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | This is the analog-help mailing list.
