'Add To Favs' in Awstats

[Ross1982]

Every month I get over 50 thousand people adding my site to their favs but my traffic is still very steady and doesn't really increase, is that tool accurate?

Not sure, but when going through my (raw) logs I find that a lot of Firefox users seem to be calling the favicon.ico which is how this stat is probably calculated. There may be something that Firefox/Gecko does that is different and is inflating this stat.

i've said it before, but it bears repeating... i've never found awstats to be accurate in comparison to other stats programs.. i've used webalizer, urchin, webtrends, awstats and a half dozen lesser know applications and awstats is consistently inaccurate.

Ye I know Awstats is crap for uniques but I use it for the refferalls, but was wondering about the add to fav thingy.
