Any ideas what might account for that? Thanks.
There can be lots of reasons for the discrepancy, but the simple explanation is that you're not measuring the same thing. Without a lot more information about exactly what assumptions were made, the most obvious source of differences is that your Administrator excluded hits from specific IP addresses (a monitoring service, or internal users), or hits to specific pages or parts of the website. It's also likely that one of you is counting .css or .js scripts that the other isn't, or even that one of you is counting image hits, and the other isn't. (That and the fact that Webtrends numbers never seem to exactly match what's in the log files. The one thing that you can be very sure of is that Analogs counts are extremely reliable).
