teynon Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 You'd have to log page views on your site in a file or database. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonLewis Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 That would count when people just say there refreshing. You can delve further into this by using a database (as mentioned above ) then having a unique counter. Where the person's IP is added to the database, then if they are inactive for say, 2 minutes you remove them from the database and on refresh it counts again. So it gets accurate statistics.
