WP Statistics VS Jetpack

    Hi guys,
    I have both plugin installed and I’m wondering why there is such a big difference between the data I have in Jetpack and in WP Statistic.

    For example, yesterday:
    VIEWS/VISIT (jetpack/wp statistic): 90/369
    VISITORS/VISITOR (jetpack/wp statistic): 40/147

    Am I missing something? I already purge the visitors with more that 20 hits, now I don’t know which is the correct one and how to set up correctly WP Statistic (my IP is already blacklisted and so the admin/editor/author).

    Thank you!

    From the FAQ:

    = I’m using another statistics plugin/service and get different numbers for them, why? =

    Pretty much every plugin/service is going to give you different results for visits and vistors, there are several reasons for this:

    * Web crawler detection
    * Detection method (javascript vs server side PHP)
    * Centralized exclusions

    Services that use centralized databases, like Google Analytics, for spam and robot detection have better detection than WP Statistics can. The trade off of course is relaying on an external service.
