So why would the numbers be so much different?
It looks like I misread the data on Vod's site.Sorry, I just worked that out. The site user stats have been disabled since December when we were having the DDoS attacks and those numbers are frozen in time.
http://dev.martinlawrence.ca/bpip/ is the place for live data.
You appear to have also misread my point.
The data on UID's is different than the data on this forum's stats page:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=statsWhy is that number lower than 2000000?
Ok this is confusing me now. That stats page stopped updating the history at the bottom of the page in December so I thought it had completely stopped updating. I know when users are banned or nuked their accounts remain and even when people have asked to have accounts deleted they are told they can't. So I cannot explain it other than to take a guess that they used to delete accounts a long time ago and stopped.
