Total Views
Just a quick note to tell you that I finally got around to adding a Total Views counter at the top of your stats page.
Podz had the great idea of showing your “Best Day Ever” so I added that, too. Enjoy!

Very nice! Thanks!

Great thanx!
Sep 11th at 10:16 pm
Mmm…
Looks like a GREAT start toward developing some powerful traffic analytics! Thanks!

“Day 91″ as my best day doesn’t mean much to me though.
Sep 11th at 10:22 pm
Cool! Thanks!!
Sep 11th at 10:24 pm
Great adds both! Thanks!
Sep 11th at 10:26 pm
First of all, thanks. Second, not sure if this is the place for this, but I have two areas, one has the date, the second is called Today. Today’s date is filled in with the information on referalls, etc, but the Today section has nothing.
Sep 11th at 10:28 pm
Useful stuff. Thanks!
Sep 11th at 10:30 pm
Blog Stats–stats for “Yesterday” have disappeared. Also, now Search Terms=None for today. This can’t be true when Blog Feed shows almost 30% by search engines. Think something went wrong.
Sep 11th at 10:33 pm
Great I really needed that… I use the Hemingway theme which does not have a any place to put a text widtet with a site meter. So, for me to know what my total views were I had to quickly change themes to have a look at what my stats were.
Now I don’t have to change my theme anymore.
Very good for us Hemingway lovers.

yahoooo, thanks guys!

disembedded: Fixed. Thanks!

Looks like today was my “Best Day Ever”… Well, at least according to this. Cool feature, nonetheless.
Sep 11th at 11:00 pm
This is great. Turns out my “Best Day Ever” is today. Thanks for both.
Sep 11th at 11:02 pm
Best day ever: 372.
Guess that’s all right.
Sep 11th at 11:03 pm
Excellent, thanks. My new theme Girl Theme, doesn’t allow adding widgets
this is a great solution for me, (to keep track of views) cuz I love the theme, except for the lack of widget capabilities. 
I LOVE WORDPRESS!
xoxoxo
Sep 11th at 11:24 pm
Yay! More stats!
Sep 11th at 11:33 pm
What is the “best day ever” stat about? Is there a ranking somewhere?
Sep 11th at 11:33 pm
great!
Sep 11th at 11:33 pm
Coolies! And perhaps a “worst day ever” is coversely a good humbling reminder? …no second thought, nah! I can’t get enough of stats…
Sep 11th at 11:52 pm
“Best Day Ever” I got a 1262 score (probably my Bad Day ever). But great addition to the stats functions. Could you also add such as Number of Post, Number of Comments on our sidebar widget? Thanks.
Sep 12th at 12:04 am
good idea! i love the stats
Sep 12th at 12:09 am
Would be cool if “Best Day Ever” showed the date in parenthesis!
Sep 12th at 12:12 am
That’s cool!Thanks!
Sep 12th at 12:15 am
Oh, believe me, I was already keeping track of my best day ever.
Question: does “total views” include hits from spam? It’d be more useful if it didn’t. I don’t have a hugely popular blog, so I’m cognizant of the fact that Akismet’s 2,000 saves is actually a sizable chunk of my total hits. As flattering as it is to see a higher number, a more accurate one would be appreciated.
Sep 12th at 12:16 am
nice addon, thanks!
Sep 12th at 12:27 am
Thank you so much for that, how weird is it that today, (yesterday for you guys) was my best day ever! I just thought y’all were just congratulating me!
Anyway, I got so many hits because I was part of the 2996 tribute to 9/11 victims. Over 3000 bloggers honored 1 victim of 9/11. Check out my guy, Michael Morgan Taylor and the links to all the rest of the fantastic people we lost!
Sep 12th at 12:40 am
Absolutely fabulous!!! Totally works for my narcissistic self.
Sep 12th at 12:51 am
Thanks Andy, great work.
Sep 12th at 1:23 am
Thanks! I disliked having to display it on my page to see it.
Sep 12th at 3:00 am
That’s nice. Thanks.
Sep 12th at 3:39 am
Great Going.Keep it up!!
Sep 12th at 4:01 am
Very cool guys!
Sep 12th at 4:35 am
That’s a nice goodie, thx!
Like Mark Jaquith says, would be great to see the date also.
Sep 12th at 4:48 am
Its nice
Sep 12th at 4:50 am
that’s cool and useful, thanks!
Sep 12th at 5:17 am
Gr8!! We really happy to have that feature..
Thanks muchz
Sep 12th at 5:18 am
Noticed this this eve pst. I like it.
Sep 12th at 5:27 am
Thank you Andy!
Sep 12th at 5:47 am
Great work Andy…indeed!!
Sep 12th at 5:59 am
Thanks, I had to depend on the Blog Stats Widget for that. But also if we could have the Most read article (posts) ever or stats for all the articles (posts) that how many times have they been read till date. Currently, we have stats only for a month. So the numbers ususally drop down or remain static once after a month or so as it starts discounting the reading hits prior to the month.
Sep 12th at 6:16 am
Ah, see, I originally thought best day every meant the date and that I was seeing a day number, not the number of hits on the best day.
What the best day of your life? 42.
So it’s not like that at all. Wording can be pesky.
Sep 12th at 6:39 am
This is nice, appreciate ur constantly effort in making wordpress better and better.
Sep 12th at 6:57 am
Cool!
Sep 12th at 7:02 am
thank you ;]
Sep 12th at 7:12 am
thx vm thats great, can we have it in our sidebar?
Sep 12th at 7:13 am
Great! Fantastic!
Sep 12th at 7:27 am
props!!!
Sep 12th at 8:07 am
Hi Andy,
This feature is enhancing the Stats page. You guys making things very best for blogging.. I love to express my heartfelt wishes and thanks.
Keep going..

Sep 12th at 8:09 am
I have one suggestion. How about stats appearing on post?
There shoud be stats (total view of perticular post) on the post. so reader can understand how popular the post is!
Sep 12th at 9:23 am
excellent! a medium value (since the start of the blog) will be very nice, too…
Sep 12th at 10:09 am
Tooo good….was waiting for this Andy thanks a lot
Sep 12th at 10:14 am
I agree with shashi…what about post specifc stats ?
Sep 12th at 10:32 am
Thanks a lot for getting wordpress better each day!
Greetings from Portugal
Sep 12th at 12:03 pm
Excellent stuff. Thank you!
Sep 12th at 12:29 pm
Oh no, another stat to obsess on!
Sep 12th at 1:04 pm
Thanks a lot , i agree with all the comments
WordPress is the right choose for bloggers
Sep 12th at 1:15 pm
Haha! Nice new additions to one of my favourite features! Although it is kind of irritating that I am currently unable to access my dashboard through the admin bar (I have posted in the forums regarding this). Nonetheless, great work! 3 cheers to WP!
Sep 12th at 1:59 pm
The only other thing I would ask for is a way to see total views of a single post.
Sep 12th at 2:06 pm
Thanks for that new little detail, WordPress is becoming more powerfull each day.
Sep 12th at 2:08 pm
oh wow, only been there once! looks great and more complete. good job.
Sep 12th at 2:17 pm
HEY! That’s great! Thanks alot, really means much to me…
Sep 12th at 3:22 pm
This is great…
I would love to have more comprehensive analytics on my blog, or failing that, the ability to use javascript so that I can use something like sitemeter…
Analytics are actually an important part of the blogosphere. To the extent that wordpress prevents users from easily using analytics, wordpress keeps itself on the margins.
But I love this feature. Thanks!
Sep 12th at 3:32 pm
Thanx, appreciate it, since I don’t have the option of adding the counter to my theme…hint, hint.
Sep 12th at 6:01 pm
I noticed that feature- nice work.
Sep 12th at 7:24 pm
This is cool guys, glad you added the feature. Nice touch.
Sep 12th at 7:30 pm
Thanks, nice feature, missed that.
Sep 12th at 7:38 pm
Nice feature….
Another suggestion: It would be nice if we can change the color of text in the editor!!
Sep 12th at 7:47 pm
it is nice to see. that will help a lot
Thanks and Regards
Sep 12th at 10:14 pm
Good work, thank you!
Sep 12th at 10:54 pm
Outstanding feature, thanks! And I agree with those who say having a total hits per post thingy would be cool, although I’d prefer to have that only visible to the blog owner.
FYI y’all, I think WordPress doesn’t include hits from bots, etc. It will include hits from human scammers, but if L.Ron and his minions are reading my blog, I’ll take the hit. I’m not proud.
Sep 13th at 1:33 am
This is a nice addition – and thank you – however I agree completely with Rohan Q. I would like to be able to analyse my stats and use them to inform my knowledge about my readers and how they visit my blog rather than simply look at the stats and feel good because I have lots of views on a post. Basically I’m after analytics. With the current javascript limitations (I know, I know the reasons it’s not permitted) it is still a big missing piece for me. With this ability though WP.com would be almost perfect…
Sep 13th at 4:03 am
I’m too busy working on a new blog to post much on the one that’s up right now, but when logged in tonite, instantly saw the new Stat feature. I like it alot.
Will it be a cumulative total, i.e. ‘Most hits of ANY day’ –or Most for previous month? This must have been some work to accomplish, so Thank You. Well done.
Sep 13th at 7:10 am
very nice
Sep 13th at 3:42 pm
Cool, thanks man!!
Sep 13th at 4:20 pm
I love it, but I would still like to see more stats, or perhaps a widget like MyBlogLog
Sep 13th at 4:56 pm
nice…
Sep 13th at 5:38 pm
a new surprise everyday
I like!
Sep 13th at 5:55 pm
Excellent-thanks for that WP!
Sep 13th at 7:46 pm
Great. Now I can remove “Blog Stats” from my public pages.
Sep 13th at 8:26 pm
thanks!
Sep 14th at 1:41 am
“Steve Says: Ah, see, I originally thought best day every meant the date and that I was seeing a day number, not the number of hits on the best day” .. . i cant even go there– LOL!!
Big Kiss to WordPress!
Sep 14th at 4:38 am
great
Sep 14th at 6:35 am
Love it!
Sep 14th at 6:45 am
Hey, is it possible to get that piece of html code in order to display the statistics in the blog home page. I’m using Hemingway so there is no such readymade widget available. Someone mentioned that it’s no way possible to add sitemeter to hemingway, but it’s possible and i have done that in my blog. But the point is i want tto display statistics from WP and not from any 3rd party. Please help.
Sep 14th at 9:16 am
This is great!
Sep 14th at 3:03 pm
Excellent! Very happy with that! Thanks! Xie Xie and so on.
Sep 14th at 5:11 pm
Thanks for the improvements.
Here’s my suggestion -
It would be cool to have an average stat….oooooo!! It would just be good to know how many visitors, on average, you get per day
Sep 14th at 7:15 pm
That’s a pretty cool thing. I can even say the best day ever even before the Flash graph loads up.
Thank you.

Sep 14th at 10:54 pm
thanks. its really helpful.
Sep 15th at 7:35 pm
Nice feature! It came at a time when stats climbed steadily so I was excited to see them. Once reality sets in and the numbers drop, I think I will need links to handling depression blogs.
Sep 16th at 12:42 am
This is my first day here on WordPress. Just thought I would post to make sure it works
Now to figure out how to use this place.
Sep 16th at 1:30 am
……. thanks. This links directly to my daily newspaper column for readers to get back issues of columns. You have saved me a lot of time and given my readers (hardcopy readers) an easy access to what they say they want. Hats off to you all.

Sep 16th at 5:21 am
May I suggest, if it isn’t too late, possibly adding a stat that shows your average views per day? I think that would be really sweet and to me it doesn’t seem like it would be too difficult to create.
Sep 16th at 12:58 pm
Hey i’ll second the idea of an average! That would be cool!

Sep 16th at 5:05 pm
THANKS THIS WAS A GREAT TREAT!!!!
Sep 17th at 9:37 am
Does this only capture unique visitors, how are the pageviews calculated. Do let us know and as requested can we get more stats
