Always a good question that I try to answer each month :-)

As we all know, it's damn near impossible to figure out how "certain" sponsors track hits. There are a few sponsors like PerfectGonzo that I leave out of the stats entirely because I have no idea what they track. A few of the sponsors I must manually login to their stats and compute the 1st page unique ratio because they don't report it in Statsremote... but for the most part, the list is fairly consistant 1st page uniques. It's definately not perfect though. It couldn't be without running my own tracking script which I have no interest in doing.

I hope that providing other snippets of info like "traffic rank", "most earned" and "most traffic received" will help people make more informed decisions as to who converts best for me. In the end, it comes down to dollars. The sponsors that make the most and convert the best over time get the most traffic.
