Seeming Discrepancies with Google Analytics Dashboard Widget

    Google Analytics kicked in for my new WordPress site on 4/10 and in the first six days, here's what I have listed on my Google Analytics Dashboard Widget:

    234 Visits
    963 Pageviews
    4.12 Pages/Visit
    32.48% Bounce Rate
    00:05:22 Avg. Time on Site
    59.4% New Visits

    Top Posts
    (home page)
    343 views

    Yet when I go to All Pages, the Analytics for that home page are listed this way:

    965 pageviews
    235 exits
    654 uniques

    I'm pretty sure both the numbers showing on the Dashboard and the numbers for the individual pages are coming from the Google Analytics Dashboard Widget. I need to explain to my client why the discrepancies in the numbers, does anyone know why those numbers are so vastly different?
