Actually, Analog said that your web server only recorded 4297 requests. It's not immediately obvious how a request for 468x60.jpg is supposed to trigger the update process you describe above - .jpg is usually a static file type. But a useful sanity check would be to see what Analog shows as the number of requests for the page that the .jpg file is embedded in. Is it more in line with the 4297 number or the 100121 number?
