Who was talking about code? I wasn't - I was talking about traffic, and my analysis of it in the course of developing code to help detect cheaters and hitbots. And a LARGE percentage of traffic out there is shit, right now there's an epidemic of hitbotters and such, just hit AWI and check it out.

Your point was I should deal with a trustable person - that's the problem.. Since there's so few scripts out there that can detect cheaters (UCJ for instance is easily fooled), they DON'T KNOW that they're getting cheated.. So sure, they can say in complete honesty that "Ya, we're getting 100k", and not have any idea that they're wrong. That's why I would never buy a site unless I had a chance to root around in the logs and run some traffic analysis for a few days first.. Either that, or like I said, verified sales figures.

Traffic can suck my dick, it's all about the money.

Cheers,
