    Hi,

    I am a bit confused, in one of my sites stats I have a problem!

    The statcounter shows that I have 1500 UV today but in my cpanel ( awstat ), it shows only 350 UV.

    The second thing is in the awstat Robots/Spiders visitors (Top 25)

    I have in the top list

    Unknown robot (identified by empty user agent string)

    It consumes a lot of bandwitch, which spider is that ??

    Weird situation, I have many website and it's the first time where I get these king of issues, anyone experienced the same thing?

    You may have had your web tracker code copied by another site - ensure that you set your web tracker to ignore hits from other urls. If that's not the case, install a backup web tracker to double check your traffic.
