Recently I got a programmer to design me a redirect script that not only forwards a visitor to an affiliate program but it also logs referring urls, raw hits, unique ips, dates, times etc...The whole idea behind this is so that I can compare my statistics against the affiliate program I'm promoting.

Well to cut a long story short, I'm logging 10% or more unique IP's each day compared to the affiliate program stats.

I have exported the data and given it to my rep, but he has replied with a bullshit answer on why this is occuring.

He has promised that every click no matter how it is tracked that results in a signup guarantees that I will get paid for it.

I just don't feel so sure.

What do you think I should do?
