Now I did look though the code again, and as far as I can tell it's working just fine. If you are positive its not working still, maybe try un-installing and re-installing, but be warned doing that will clear the total time for all your users.

If anyone else believes they are having this problem please let me know and I'll see about having our Lead Developer look over the code again.
Yes sorry I didn't mean to suggest it wasn't working - it's a great mod and working as designed. I just wanted the option of changing the numerator from registration date to installation date.

By using installation date and registration date, it's looking at two very different variables for calculating average time spent online. If user XYZ has been registered for two years it will take weeks before his average time online begins to look remotely correct or informational.

For me, I'd rather the formula calculate the average time online starting at install time (not registration date)...or both if that's preferable or easier. That way users won't be writing me saying, "c'mon that's ridiculous...I spend way more than 8 seconds a day on here!".
