What I show in my own stats, custom built for click tracking, are 50-80% off from what many affiliates show. I've just learned to try and ignore it, because it's so prevalent, and, well.... perhaps what my idea of a "unique" is different from what a "unique" really is.

*shrug*
On a related note, some sponsors will provide ratios based on 2nd page or join page "hits" instead of uniques to the landing page in order to make your ratio look better. If they provide ratios like this in addition to ones ratio of unques to the landing page that is helpful but to do it instead of a ratio for uniques to the landing page is just silly and obvious to even the newest webmaster.
