I feel special. hehe. :P Actually my blog went down on 12th feb and i left the blogosphere all together but am back now.

Good luck for this month as well! I got a mention in the post. I feel special. hehe. :P

I do notice some pretty large discrepancies (as Louis Gray points out) between the server info, Google Analytics, MyBlogLog, and some of the other folks like Alexa or Compete to where I might just uninstall the Google stuff to increase page loading time. I figure the server logs must be the most accurate since it's what is serving up the pages.

It's pretty nice. But if you're happy with what you've got then there's no need. If you really want to amuse yourself you could "get quantified" http://www.quantcast.com/ and add yourself to the slate of sites that are being official tracked by quantcast (they also provide rankings for sites that aren't part of their reporting network via a panel like nielsen or alexa). We did this for fanpop so that we could provide 3rd parties with a publicly available set of traffic data. It's always amusing to look at the rank list and see your site ranked somewhere between "bigboobsalert.com" and "fratpartysluts.com" (it's also humbling to see how high the % of porn sites that have penetrated the top 5000 are -- sorry for the word choice).

I'm not sure what that package considers "unique" but it's the lowest metric I'm currently watching. I think it's based on IP address.

What counts as a unique and what software are you using? Depending on which software I use, the total number can vary widely, with SiteMeter and MyBlogLog showing the lowest #'s, and Summary or Analog having the highest #'s. How are you tracking “uniques”?
