Add to favorites is shite. That's only used for IE when it searches for your favicon.ico.
Yep thats a good point
However, I do still see a decent correlation of what AWstats shows and what I would expect from my individual sites. In other words a harder to surf site with shittier traffic shows less bookmarks than a well made site with lots of content and great well targeted traffic.
It seems to works well as a comparison between sites but I would not pay to much attention to the actual percentage.
