Hi, I recently released two packages (RndTexExams and GetTDData) in CRAN and I'm trying to track the number of downloads and location of users.
I wrote a simple script to download and analyze the log files in http://cran -logs.rstudio.com. I realized, however, that during the release of a new version of the packages there is a spike in the number of downloads. I believe that the CRAN checks are included in the number of installations of the package in the log files. I see from the log files the existence of column "ip_id", which sets a daily unique id for each new ip. My question is, can CRAN set the ip_id of the CRAN machines to a fixed value so that we can filter only "real" users out of the data? Can anyone see any other way around it?
