Hi Paul, Browser bookmarked pages will not have a referrer. Does this account for the discrepancy?

I have got one site where the total reported referrer requests are 7,000 less than total monthly page requests, and 70,000 less than the total reported file requests. Internal referrers are filtered out. So, I am completely stuck on trying to figure out what is being reported in the referrer report? I know I have posted questions before about defining what the referrer report does, and I thought it was safe to assume that the number of referrers should equal the number of recorded page requests, at least roughly, maybe give our take a 100. But these discrepancies are so significant, that I am completely stuck!
