  I have a very quick question to ask. I checked my blog stats before dinner @ 5pm CST and now I checked them again @ 6pm CST. Somehow in that time a full day in terms of my blog stats has turned over. Are the stats simply based on when I started the blog? If so, is there any way that I can set my blog stats to cover a full day (12am CST to 11:59pm CST) based on my time zone?

  I’m on EST. They change when they change for WP. You could adjust your clock so it matches theirs, but it will still happen when WP has it set for.
  Whatever time it changes is still 24 hours. It just might not be at midnight, your time.

  The stats roll over using 00 UTC. If you have your time set properly, they will roll over at the same time every day. I’m also on EST (UTC – 5 hours). That means my stats roll over at 7pm my time. There is nothing that you can do to set the stats to match your time.

  Well said. I have to practice being more articulate.
