Sponsors stats don't match statcounter?

Chffr · 2009-03-13, 02:20 PM

The main sponsor in question is reporting only 1 hit for the 12th(I originally posted the 11th but it's the 12th that is in question). Statcounter reports at least 25 exits from my page to this sponsors' FHG links that contain my NATS encoded ref. I copy pasted all the links directly.

I am also finding differences between statcounter and Google analytics. Statcounter reports more uniques, more returning and more pageloads than GA.

Is there another, better, more trusted way to keep an eye on traffic? Is this something that I should ask my affiliate manager about? I'm concerned about being perceived as biting the hand that feeds me if I say anything. But I'm also concerned about my ref's and signups being counted accurately.

I could post screenshots if need be.
