Excluding wp-admin folder from statistics

    My WordPress sites are working great, but my daily statistics are nearly meaningless because they include hits on “non-pages,” mostly in the directory wp-admin. For example, here are the top five hits from one of my sites (as gleaned from Awstats):

    xmirpc.php
    (home page)
    /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
    /wp-admin/post.php
    /wp-admin/nav-menus.php

    How do most WordPress users deal with this? Is there a way to fix this, so my statistics only display hits on real pages?

    Thanks.

    I switched my non-techie webmasters to Jetpack Site Stats, after having them view awstats for years. They much prefer it.

    In case you are interested, hits on /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php tells you how often your site actually uses AJAX.

    Thanks for the tips. I didn’t even know my WordPress site used AJAX.
