    Just an added note. The percentage is compared with previous month (by default)

    It shows that your sites traffic has decreased.

    For example if you see today's analytics then the percentage -44.80% is calculated from traffic comparision of current 30days (Sep. 3, 2010 to Oct. 3, 2010) vs. previous 30 days (Aug. 8, 2010 to Sep. 2, 2010).

    -44.80% shows that your last 30 days traffic has decreased by -44.80% compared to previous 30 days.

    Hope this example is not difficult to understand :)
