I can shed some additional light on this problem.

If you have a traffic tool just trying to analyze actual visitors, and not robots, then Google Analytics and other traffic tools tracking from the web page is probably closer to the truth.

There are a lot of stealth spiders and web scrapers out there that use actual browser user agents which on a report from a native hosted web analyzer would show them as visitors, with LOTS of web pages, when in fact they are spiders and scrapers and ZERO VALUE.

Those stealth spiders and scrapers also don't run javascript, which may make you think the quantity of visitors with disabled javascript is higher than normal.
