Site Announcement: Statistics changes

We've made some changes to the statistics that myExperiment captures about your content:

• View and download statistics are now split into those made directly from myExperiment website and those made externally. For myExperiment accesses we also give an indication whether the access was from a member (ie someone logged in) or annoymous. These details are available on the 'see breakdown' link in the statistics sidebar.
• We do not count viewings or downloads of your own items (based on whether you are logged into the site or not)
• We do not count accesses made by search engine crawlers.

We've gone through our log files and where possible adjusted existing statistics to reflect the above changes. As a result, you'll likely see a drop in the counts for your content.
