We use the Throughput timer all the time, and it works fine for us. There's not really enough information to tell what is happening ... Does the initial page actually do a redirect? If so, it will be counted as a sample. You can eliminate this from the Test by selecting "Redirect automatically", or by coding the test to load only the redirected page. How long did the test actually last?
