What that means is stats remote is pulling and computing TCG's ratio's based on 1st page hits. That is NOT the case for a high percentage of the companies I see listed above us and you can imagine how much 'better' a sponsor will appear when the ratio's are being calculated using 2nd page or join page clicks.
I understand that pulling each sponsors stats manually is too labor intense and I understand how valuable SR is, I just wish it was across the board fair in it's comparisons.

Thanks again for the additional input
