The mystery of my blog traffic

    I have been running various statistics software on my blog/site.. Namely awstats, webalizer, wordpress.com stats, google analytics.

    Awstats: http://coax.audiolabs.org/awstats2/machinecode.org.html
    webalizer: http://coax.audiolabs.org/stats

    For some reason my webalizer is showing twice the amount of unique visitors than awstats.

    wordpress.com stats and google analytics didnt work, i got 0 visits..

    I'm wondering how I can accurately find my unique visitor count and page views, and also is webalizer the best one?

    I like Analytics the best. Also try PMetrics. Maybe you actually had O visits?

    But how can that be when my apache raw log file is 40MB and shows tons of ips accessing the site?

    I now have 3000+ uniques according to webalizer in july..

    Analytics will give you status and tell you whether the code is installed correctly. But make sure the code is installed on the top of the page maybe you've got heavy content pages that don't load completely and analytics code doesn't get picked up
