 * There are already [many](http://www.bigwebmaster.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Counters/)
   [free](http://www.proxy2.de/scripts.php) [page](http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Counters/)
   [counters](http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorials/6/0.php). Why re-invent the wheel
   on such a simple thing?

 * just wondering if the devs has any plan including them in wp. it eliminates the
   need for a thrid party solution, and it can’t hurt wp by having its own builtin
   counter, can it?

 * [CG-Referer](http://www.chait.net/index.php?p=86) has the ability to track sitewide
   unique-IP visits, which I use on [CHAITGEAR](http://www.chait.net) for real daily/
   weekly/monthly stats numbers. I’ve also been using statcounter for 6 mos, but
   will likely be dumping it soon as CG-R gives accurate tracking rather than cookie-
   based erroneous ‘few hour window’ stuff. Also because page counters aren’t that
   useful for end users, and CG-R gives a lot of ‘admin level’ stats pages.
    There’s
   also a number of hacks here for doing per-post view tracking (I made a custom
   one myself), but those generally are based on pageviews and have no IP/uniqueness
   tracking (neither does mine…) as that takes too much horsepower. Depends on what
   you’re looking to use it for really. 😉 -d
