The term "hits" is confusing for a lot of people. I'm not saying you don't understand it, I just want to make it clear before you start talking about numbers.

"hits" means all connections to the server, such as showing an image or a page, while;
"pages" are all pages shown to visitors, and;
"visits" are the number of unique visitors on the site.

As an example, one of the site's on my network had the following stats for yesterday's visitors:

hits: 607050
pages: 219935
visits: 16933

As you can see, hits and visits differ quite a bit.

Yep there was a hint of sarcasm in my post

for me hits are into the millions monthy a nd around 50k uniques
