Blog Stats Update
We’re working pretty diligently on a new stats system that will offer you a lot more information in a prettier format than we currently do, and also allow you to plug in third-party systems as well. We’ll keep you on the timeline for this going live, but since it’s a pretty common request it seemed like a good idea just to let you know it is coming.
In the meantime, however, the referrer data for some of the top blogs might be out of date for a few days until we get the new system in place. Don’t worry and hold tight, it’ll be back and better than ever in no time.
Update: We’re now collecting stats for the new system, and will be making the data available shortly.

Even though I have just moved to WordPress from blogger, the only thing that WordPress was without is a counter with good stats. I love the idea of not only a better stats for my blog, but the addition of a third-party counter is even better.

it’s an interesting function that “stats” identify out the “referers” of Google as “search engine terms” from others. As you know, Baidu.com is a “another” famous search engine at China, similar service to Google. if possible, i suggest we can process those “referers” from baidu.com just as google.com.
Thanks, Richard
