Web Stats Broken?!

    Something weird is going on with my webs stats. It will go 4-5 days showing 0 for everything, then it will show actual stats for a couple of days, then back to nothing. The weird thing is that I have 2 different web stats programs and they are both showing the same thing (and I know for a fact that I never have zero visitors to my site!). Also, it's only happening on 1 of my 3 sites and it (coincidentally?) started on the day that I started using Overture's PPC program for just that site. Any one have any idea what would cause this? :confused:

    My web stats are still down...Last time they updated was 9/19/04...This sucks.

    Anyone have any clues as to why my stats would "break down" like this?

    Do you have access to your raw log files? If so; download them to your computer; and open with notepad. What's the most recent date?

    How big is the logfile itself?
    How do you run webtrends? Does it ftp to your site and parse your log files? If so; try doing it locally with downloaded logfiles.
