  Someone has been reading my blog continuously and I’m curious to see if I can see IP addresses and how?

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

  IP addressses have not been unique for over a decade and less than 30% trace back to a unique computer. ISPs place hundreds of us in the same IP block to save money. And, many of us have ever changing ie. dynamic IP addresses.

  You can install a free third party stats tracker like sitemeter or stat counter if you like. You have to use the Non-JavaScript code and place it in a text widget. http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/text-widget/
  However, it’s not possible for Staff to give you that information
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/ip-addresses/ and they will not block IP addresses.
