STATCOUNTER BLUES
According to Statcounter, no one who visited yesterday visited today. This seems unlikely. Has anyone had success counting unique visitors, rather than hits? What do you use?
I think that if you set StatCounter's maximum visit length to, oh, say, one week, then a visitor who visits anytime in that one week period is considered to be on the same visit.
Try setting the max visit length to one day. Then a unique visitor who shows up a day later will be a returning visitor, and not a unique visitor, as StatCounters calls it.
I've been happy with Bravenet. The free version tracks hits, unique visitors, new and returning visitors, referring links, and whatnot for 7 days, the pro version for longer.

Hey Alex,
"Hall Pass" a script that sold on done deal yesterday used "Complications ensue" in the logline. Congrats.

Statcounter is wrong. I've been here multiple times on both days.
