    Hello,
    From the beginning of my site I have been seeing MASSIVE awstats and GA difference. Google Analytics is showing about 700 uniques per day while Awstats is displaying inbetween 20000 and 30000 unique visitors per day. Also in my advertising statistics it is showing exactly 3x the number of google analytics visitor count (due to three ads). According to awstats a visitor goes to an average of 3 pages on my site per visit. I don't understand this massive difference unless I am getting hit with 23000 bots or something, which I don't think is correct. I was having troubles getting the google tracking code too work in the beginning because of conflicing js, which I fixed. Help?

    Analytics depend on many factor. Proxies traffic are not count as visitors in analytics or where in cpanel ,it count. In google anlaytics , if a visitors visit your website through VPN /Proxies , they are not count.
