Hannu,

Yes it does. And referrals are counted on a per-request basis so actually you can't use the numbers to derive uniques etc

One day:

2023 visits
from 1664 uniques
of which 1,475 who visited once
of which who visited more than once 189

I would say those uniques who visited more than once resulted in the 2023-1664=359 extra visits (mostly mycompany employees)

referrals from:

www.mysite.com 547 (27.03%)
No Referrer 390 (19.27% )

So basically you are saying the 547 referrals from mysite.com are double counts that should be deducted from my uniques, because they came from mysite.com and are counted as extra seperate visits by a confused Webtrends/Vitaplease?
