How accurate will these be?

In my tests, using different URLs in my feed and on my site, I noticed 
that the feed was getting a ton more downloads/views, but I then 
realized that every site that aggregates the feed uses the URL in the 
feed, often when displaying the post on their site (Mefeedia, 
FireAnt.tv, etc.) so while I thought a huge number of people were 
watching using desktop aggregators, I now think most are watching via 
web pages/online aggregators, etc.

That's true... but at least you know that traffic is still essentially
a result of RSS syndication.

Yes but it only counts them for those that are served thru the feed
--which I guess in this case (iTunes downloads) they would be. Server
stats should be more accurate because they show all downloads from all
sources.

The nice thing about the FeedBurner tracker for enclosures is also that you'll know the difference between clickthroughs from your feed vs. clickthroughs from your website.-Josh

Yes they do now.  Feed burner recently added an ability to track
downloads.  Essentially they're traching clickthroughs on the
enclosure link itself.

This is quite handy if your hosting the files at a service who cant provide you this sort of data.

I've turned on the new feature (its included in the free stuff) and have enjoyed the results so far.

Do you have access to your server stats? You should be able to tell
how many downloads you're getting from your server stats.

Any recommendations for tracking iTunes video podcast downloads?

I'm looking for the least intrusive method, in terms of my audience not having 
to sign-up, 
etc...

Any advice is appreciated
