  Last couple of days, I see wordpress.com as referrers and I see the hits are 487 and 385 till now for today. Is it a known bug or are they genuine hits ?

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

  Thanks ardpete.

  My only concern is about the security. Is the blog being compromised ?

  It boosts my blog stats but getting the hits from wordpress.com stands wierd !!!

  The number of page views showing up for today on my graph is about twice the number itemized by posts viewed. It almost looks like todays views are being added to yesterdays. Can you shed some light? Thanks.

  This has happened to me too. I am confused why there are so many hots from wordpress.com to my blog!

  I just noticed that a boatload of them are coming from WordPress.com. Does this help with the mystery?
