  My total visits count has gone from over 80,000 to now saying 600 some odd…

  Hope it’s just a temporary aberration?

  Regards

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I checked your stats and I saw that the “views all-time” number was off and I fixed that in your account. Can you check it again?

  Congratulations on holding it together long enough to post coherently and politely. I’d have fainted and then gone very, very sweary.

  I was a bit shocked to see it at first, but happily it’s been resolved…

  I have the same problem for my site accidentaltechnologist.com. Status only show back to 5/19.

  Could my account have the same problem?

  @albedoarlee, yours should be fixed. Also, posted a note for the data guys to keep an eye on this. Seems fishy.

  @rbazinet, your issue is different. Could you please start a new support request for your issue at http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/ and include details like how far back you expected to see compared to what you’re seeing now and if your server setup or domain has changed recently. Thanks!

  @designsimply – thank you. I submitted a support request last night after you replied. I have had this domain in WP for probably 1 1/2 years and until recently the stats were fine.

  The server setup has not changed other than moving to WP MU configuration a couple months ago, but the stats were fine after that too. I am hosted on WPEngine, if that matters.

  Is there any hope or did WP.com mess up my stats for good?

  My “Incoming Links” on my stats page now shows none, whereas before there used to be a lot… I don’t know if this is related to the other glitch…

  Maybe there’s some kind of time limited thing involved for incoming links?. Anybody know?

  @fencer: Incoming links is a different issue, but staff said they’re working on it.
