Quite a bit actually. Mostly that reporting is only available to "some"
browsers (the majority but not all) but also only the main document is
counted and a pageview is more than the request of the main document. For
example, you will not get all 301s/302s or images and there are many, many
other details.

See pageview definition: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Page_view

The good source for Recent pageview data is hadoop, going back a bit the
well-loved webstatscollector files provide that info:
