Statistics : 3 visitors from 4 countries ?
-
Hello,
I am a bit surprised and I don’t understand anything on how the WordPress statistics work…
There is a number of people who agglutinate on the homepage / Archives… A number which we do not find in the consultations of articles.
The other thing I do not understand is that there is sometimes less visitors than countries visiting my blog
For example : 3 guests from 4 countries… I really don’t understand…
Thank you to explain to me how it works because the situation becomes really strange…
Best regards
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi @nicoelie, when it says 3 visitors from 4 countries, can you get a screenshot including the date? We’ll take a look.

Hello,
I am very surprised as one mounth after I told about those strange stats, everything changed and I cannot find what I saw a mounth ago (even if it happened several times and that I wasn’t alone to witness it : my wife also saw those strange mathematically impossible stats, as I showed them to her, where there was more lands than visitors…)
Today, surprisingly, everything has changed : when I look at the stats, even if I go back mounths ago, it never happened… Everything looks normal : equal or more visitors than lands.
But I can affirm it wasn’t the case the day I’ve posted that thread… Not at all.
I confirm there have been more lands than visitors.
But thank you for your answer.
Regards.

If I knew it would be ask me to screencap, I would have done it to prove what I tell is truth.

Perhaps there was a fluke :) But we don’t ask for screenshots for proof, so much as for clues as to what is wrong. If I can’t see it here I can’t see those clues. So if you do run into something like this again, please send a screen capture and we’ll take a look. Thanks!

You bet, and if it’s this issue again, you can go ahead and reply in this thread. Take care.

And now, it is 2 visitors from 2 countries, so… It seems to be correct now… But it seems not to be synchronized and that looks quite weird to me

Ah, yes visitors and visits are not always exactly synchronized. From https://en.support.wordpress.com/stats/ page:
You may also notice that your visitor count lags behind your views count. This is due to the way we process the numbers. Typically a view is reported within five minutes, while it can take up to two hours for new visitors to show up in your stats.

Yep, I knew about the views, and I can understand it (even if it is strange), but what is really really strange is the number of visitors smallest than the numbers of countries.
