We operate a 16 block public WiFi district in Downtown Los Angeles. With 98% of the connection speed for the WiFi entry page shows as "Unknown", whereas on ExperienceLA.com, the "Unkown is around 20%. ExperienceLA.com has a lot of local content, and we think we have higher traffic from mobile devices than most web destinations. Anyway, "Unkn own" is a great indicator of mobile devices on ones webpages. In google analystics, you can also see exact stats for iphones and other mobile devices. I suspect that the comment above above java being turned off would apply to wireless devices and help expain this stat. Would like to hear other comments with regard to Unknown Connection speed and mobile devices.

If it worked by download speed then it wouldn't be accurate and if it went by IP address then wouldn't it require the ISPs to release information on every IP?

The paid review you submitted in ReviewMe, actually asked for a review of the home page, so I have my honest first looks. I would still be interested to learn more about your affiliate tracking software, but that still isn't an active link on your site. I apprecate your comment.

Every program has a flaw. You just have to learn how to read them. GA has issues because it uses javascript. They may also be doing some things to make the data more accurate. You need to learn about different types of traffic. When I take somebodies analytics and filter out all the junk people tend to get kind of upset that I took away traffic. Most people don't realize that so much of that traffic is junk. There are so many bots out there right now. There are also a lot of humans that function like bots and that traffic is trash as well. If your not heavily filtering your reports you don't have accurate numbers. There is no accurate method of analytics. Every program has a flaw. You just have to learn how to read them.

Using server stat readers, I have a very accurate measure of literally every visitor to any site I maintain. Comparing this data to what Google reports shows that GA is missing or not reporting as much as 30% of site visitors over a number of websites. I guess you get what you pay for.
