    Sometime ago I was going to set up google analytics for a friend, so I set up a new analytics account for his site

    But I wasn't able to add the tracking code because he wasn't able to get the password for his server for ages

    Now some weeks later I get the password, yet when I check the google analytics account I see it already shows some data!!

    11 visits, 100% from Wednesday, September 16, 2009

    how is this possible for any data at all to have been acquired?? I haven't touched his website at all yet to add the ga.js

    further notes, all from: thebesthosting.org and all from Brazil (8 visitors, 23 page views)

    Did you post somewhere for help or posted a helping hand with GA and left your ID code in there that someone else used?
