Server Awstats or analytics accurate?

[aprilsagar]

I have one problem guys regarding traffic of my blog. My server awstats shows some other figure for daily visitors while google analytics shows some other figure. Which one is accurate from both. Does awstats include bots and even pageviews (like a visitor vists 2 pages that day and awstats counts it as 2 visitors).

Any knowledge on this would be grateful.

There are several reasons why the figures can be different.

Analytics does not see visitors who disable JavaScript and it will not count visitors who were not able to connect with the Google Analytics stats server. Analytics cannot see most robots.

AWStats knows most web robots and it counts them separately, but some robots can fool AWStats and be counted as users.
