You have added an extra dot after the IP address.
IP addresses use this format.
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
There will always be 4 octets in an IP address and each octet is separated with a dot. If you want to block all IP addresses in a range then you would use 3 octets. Deny from 99.88.77. will block all IP addresses from 99.88.77.1 to 99.88.77.256
Example of adding additional IP addresses
# BLOCK/FORBID Spammers etc
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from 86.138.90.10
Deny from 99.88.77.
Deny from 55.44.33.
Allow from all

In place but these ips still show on my stat counter?

Are the Stats…
…a WordPress plugin?
…Google Analytics?
…a Stats feature in your web host control panel?
…a 3rd party Stats application?
Test to make sure your IP address code is working correctly. Add your IP address and see if you are blocked. Use FTP or your Web Host Control Panel to remove your IP address after testing.
If your IP address is shown in your stat counter then whatever it is [one of the things listed above] it is recording / logging all HTTP Response Status Codes: 200, 403, etc.

Or you can use a Proxy instead like hidemyass.com and block the IP address that the Proxy assigns to you.
