Steve,

Could it be that its due to 'repeat visitors'? - check to see if '304ISSUCCESS' in your analog.cfg is set to OFF.  I had a different php/db problem where files were downloaded from the database and even though the file was different the browser did not 'refresh' it - that could be the cause of a '304'.

Also, have you any excludes setup on the analog.cfg (I made that mistake once)

I showing some odd stats in my analog, as compared to a simple "impression
tracker" I have scripted on a page.

Quite simply, I pull a random image from a database and display it on the
screen, then I update that database record by adding 1 to the impression
count.  Very simple.

1. get random image from database
2. display image
3. update database impression count (+1)

But I get very skewed results, here are my impression counts for one
particular banner through my simple script:
Impressions: 100121

Yet Analog shows this:
4297  0.16%  19/Mar/08 15:50  /banners/468x60.jpg

So I've recorded over 100,000 impressions, but analog only recorded 4297
requests.

Anyone have an explanation or general direction I can look to sort this out?
