Hi All-
In "View Usage Statistics" in Dspace (5.4 XMLUI) do “File Visits” == file downloads?

Yes.

 Also, should these align with “google-stats” if that is set up for downloads?

No, I wouldn't expect the numbers to be the same. The DSpace usage statistics and Google Analytics each do their own filtering of what they consider to be "bots" -- search engine crawlers and the like. I'd generally expect Google Analytics to be stricter with the filtering, so the GA numbers would likely be lower. Are you seeing major discrepancies between the two figures?

cheers,
Andrea
