thx man.. we needed that
I so was not paying attention! I just asked about this in feedback
Very cool!
Eoin
Good!
Very nice! Thanks!
Great thanx!
Mmm… 🙂 Looks like a GREAT start toward developing some powerful traffic analytics! Thanks!
“Day 91” as my best day doesn’t mean much to me though. 😦
Cool! Thanks!!
Great adds both! Thanks!
First of all, thanks. Second, not sure if this is the place for this, but I have two areas, one has the date, the second is called Today. Today’s date is filled in with the information on referalls, etc, but the Today section has nothing.
Useful stuff. Thanks!
😎
Blog Stats–stats for “Yesterday” have disappeared. Also, now Search Terms=None for today. This can’t be true when Blog Feed shows almost 30% by search engines. Think something went wrong.
Great I really needed that… I use the Hemingway theme which does not have a any place to put a text widtet with a site meter. So, for me to know what my total views were I had to quickly change themes to have a look at what my stats were.
Now I don’t have to change my theme anymore.
Very good for us Hemingway lovers.

yahoooo, thanks guys!

: Fixed. Thanks!
Looks like today was my “Best Day Ever”… Well, at least according to this. Cool feature, nonetheless.
This is great. Turns out my “Best Day Ever” is today. Thanks for both. 🙂
Best day ever: 372.
Guess that’s all right.
Excellent, thanks. My new theme Girl Theme, doesn’t allow adding widgets 😦 this is a great solution for me, (to keep track of views) cuz I love the theme, except for the lack of widget capabilities. 😉
I LOVE WORDPRESS!
xoxoxo
Yay! More stats!
What is the “best day ever” stat about? Is there a ranking somewhere?
great!
Coolies! And perhaps a “worst day ever” is coversely a good humbling reminder? …no second thought, nah! I can’t get enough of stats…
“Best Day Ever” I got a 1262 score (probably my Bad Day ever). But great addition to the stats functions. Could you also add such as Number of Post, Number of Comments on our sidebar widget? Thanks.
good idea! i love the stats
Would be cool if “Best Day Ever” showed the date in parenthesis!
That’s cool!Thanks!
Oh, believe me, I was already keeping track of my best day ever. 🙂
Question: does “total views” include hits from spam? It’d be more useful if it didn’t. I don’t have a hugely popular blog, so I’m cognizant of the fact that Akismet’s 2,000 saves is actually a sizable chunk of my total hits. As flattering as it is to see a higher number, a more accurate one would be appreciated.
nice addon, thanks!
Thank you so much for that, how weird is it that today, (yesterday for you guys) was my best day ever! I just thought y’all were just congratulating me! 🙂 Anyway, I got so many hits because I was part of the 2996 tribute to 9/11 victims. Over 3000 bloggers honored 1 victim of 9/11. Check out my guy, Michael Morgan Taylor and the links to all the rest of the fantastic people we lost!
Absolutely fabulous!!! Totally works for my narcissistic self.
Thanks Andy, great work.
Thanks! I disliked having to display it on my page to see it.
That’s nice. Thanks.
Great Going.Keep it up!!
Very cool guys!
That’s a nice goodie, thx!
Like Mark Jaquith says, would be great to see the date also.
Its nice
that’s cool and useful, thanks!
Gr8!! We really happy to have that feature..
Thanks muchz
Noticed this this eve pst. I like it.
Thank you Andy!
Great work Andy…indeed!!
Thanks, I had to depend on the Blog Stats Widget for that. But also if we could have the Most read article (posts) ever or stats for all the articles (posts) that how many times have they been read till date. Currently, we have stats only for a month. So the numbers ususally drop down or remain static once after a month or so as it starts discounting the reading hits prior to the month.
Ah, see, I originally thought best day every meant the date and that I was seeing a day number, not the number of hits on the best day.
What the best day of your life? 42.
So it’s not like that at all. Wording can be pesky.
This is nice, appreciate ur constantly effort in making wordpress better and better.
Cool!
thank you ;]
thx vm thats great, can we have it in our sidebar?
Great! Fantastic!
props!!!
Hi Andy,
This feature is enhancing the Stats page. You guys making things very best for blogging.. I love to express my heartfelt wishes and thanks.
Keep going..

I have one suggestion. How about stats appearing on post?
There shoud be stats (total view of perticular post) on the post. so reader can understand how popular the post is!
excellent! a medium value (since the start of the blog) will be very nice, too…
Tooo good….was waiting for this Andy thanks a lot
I agree with shashi…what about post specifc stats ?
Thanks a lot for getting wordpress better each day!
Greetings from Portugal 🙂
Excellent stuff. Thank you!
Oh no, another stat to obsess on!
Thanks a lot , i agree with all the comments
WordPress is the right choose for bloggers
Haha! Nice new additions to one of my favourite features! Although it is kind of irritating that I am currently unable to access my dashboard through the admin bar (I have posted in the forums regarding this). Nonetheless, great work! 3 cheers to WP!
The only other thing I would ask for is a way to see total views of a single post.
Thanks for that new little detail, WordPress is becoming more powerfull each day.
oh wow, only been there once! looks great and more complete. good job.
HEY! That’s great! Thanks alot, really means much to me…
This is great…
I would love to have more comprehensive analytics on my blog, or failing that, the ability to use javascript so that I can use something like sitemeter…
Analytics are actually an important part of the blogosphere. To the extent that wordpress prevents users from easily using analytics, wordpress keeps itself on the margins.
But I love this feature. Thanks!
Thanx, appreciate it, since I don’t have the option of adding the counter to my theme…hint, hint.
I noticed that feature- nice work.
This is cool guys, glad you added the feature. Nice touch.
Thanks, nice feature, missed that.
Nice feature….
Another suggestion: It would be nice if we can change the color of text in the editor!!
it is nice to see. that will help a lot
Thanks and Regards
Good work, thank you!
Outstanding feature, thanks! And I agree with those who say having a total hits per post thingy would be cool, although I’d prefer to have that only visible to the blog owner.
FYI y’all, I think WordPress doesn’t include hits from bots, etc. It will include hits from human scammers, but if L.Ron and his minions are reading my blog, I’ll take the hit. I’m not proud.
This is a nice addition – and thank you – however I agree completely with Rohan Q. I would like to be able to analyse my stats and use them to inform my knowledge about my readers and how they visit my blog rather than simply look at the stats and feel good because I have lots of views on a post. Basically I’m after analytics. With the current javascript limitations (I know, I know the reasons it’s not permitted) it is still a big missing piece for me. With this ability though WP.com would be almost perfect…
I’m too busy working on a new blog to post much on the one that’s up right now, but when logged in tonite, instantly saw the new Stat feature. I like it alot.
Will it be a cumulative total, i.e. ‘Most hits of ANY day’ –or Most for previous month? This must have been some work to accomplish, so Thank You. Well done.
very nice
Cool, thanks man!!
I love it, but I would still like to see more stats, or perhaps a widget like MyBlogLog
nice…
a new surprise everyday 🙂 I like!
Excellent-thanks for that WP!
Great. Now I can remove “Blog Stats” from my public pages.
thanks!
“Steve Says: Ah, see, I originally thought best day every meant the date and that I was seeing a day number, not the number of hits on the best day” .. . i cant even go there– LOL!!
Big Kiss to WordPress!
great
Love it! 😉
Hey, is it possible to get that piece of html code in order to display the statistics in the blog home page. I’m using Hemingway so there is no such readymade widget available. Someone mentioned that it’s no way possible to add sitemeter to hemingway, but it’s possible and i have done that in my blog. But the point is i want tto display statistics from WP and not from any 3rd party. Please help.
This is great!
Excellent! Very happy with that! Thanks! Xie Xie and so on.
Thanks for the improvements.
Here’s my suggestion –
It would be cool to have an average stat….oooooo!! It would just be good to know how many visitors, on average, you get per day 😉
That’s a pretty cool thing. I can even say the best day ever even before the Flash graph loads up.
Thank you.

thanks. its really helpful.
Nice feature! It came at a time when stats climbed steadily so I was excited to see them. Once reality sets in and the numbers drop, I think I will need links to handling depression blogs.
This is my first day here on WordPress. Just thought I would post to make sure it works 🙂 Now to figure out how to use this place.
……. thanks. This links directly to my daily newspaper column for readers to get back issues of columns. You have saved me a lot of time and given my readers (hardcopy readers) an easy access to what they say they want. Hats off to you all.

May I suggest, if it isn’t too late, possibly adding a stat that shows your average views per day? I think that would be really sweet and to me it doesn’t seem like it would be too difficult to create.
Hey i’ll second the idea of an average! That would be cool!
Eoin
THANKS THIS WAS A GREAT TREAT!!!!
Does this only capture unique visitors, how are the pageviews calculated. Do let us know and as requested can we get more stats
