I'm sure that will get you lots of newbs etc. thinking that's fantastic.. But for those of us in the know, I'd rather see "real" surfers. i.e. I don't mind the hits not being "100%" since a SHIT LOAD of those "clicks" are crawlers/spiders etc. So saying you count ever click means nothing. For all we know, the other ones that are "off" could be filtering those crawlers out and you're not.

I would love to see some programs get some REAL stats tracking that filtered that shit out and showed you that they filtered it out. Hey.. There you go Trey.. get your programmers to implement that shit and you'll truly have the best stats out there. Oh.. and if you don't do it already, have your FHGs track the referer back to the paysite so the affiliate can actually see which of their SITES are sending the traffic and not which gallery... not "campaigns" though. If you run lots of sites, campaigns become unweildy to implement (unless they can be added "on the fly").
