Website stats who to believe?
Hiya,

So I have two stat thingies for my website. I have statcounter and I also look at the AW Stats which is provided by my host....suprise suprise I Web

Anyway, I have noticed a distinct diffirence between them both when it comes to numbers of visitors, AWstats always says that I have had many many more Unique visitors than statcounter says I have. The way I see it is that AWStats do not count bots as unique visitors is that right?>

Anyway, any ideas about what might be accurate?

Awstats has access to your server logs so will be more accurate.
Also, it will be able to count hits on images etc.

AW stats counts robot visits elsewhere (about 3/4 of the way down - just before the bit on search engine words used).
