Probably a corrupt header, could be a network error of some kind. Unless it shows up consistently I wouldn’t worry about it.

Happend today again over 1000, looks like it’s the total visiter count in total? Is that possible? If 1 new visiter comes to the site that counter is increased to?
Yes the visitor/visit count would be increase by this hit.
It’s likely a robot doing something to try and hide itself from detection. You could turn on the “Store entire user agent string” in the general settings tab to try and see if there is a user agent but I doubt there’s anything there if they’ve managed to mess up the http headers enough to avoid sending an IP address.
Perhaps you can check your web server logs and see if there is anything strange showing up in there?

I just checked today. 1100 hits unknow.
I did a test, downloaded the log access file, refreshed the page till it hit 1101, downloaded the file again, and looked at diffrences. I did it a few times.
The following items are being hit as unknow:
So the unknow hits, are all the bots counted together? Or i am i missing something?
Turned on the “Store entire user agent string” for now.

Those should get excluded based on the robot’s list (both are listed in it).
Tomorrow, check the wp_statistics_visitor table with phpMyAdmin, there should be aline near the end of the table without any ip address and hopefully a user agent string.

It is still happening.
See phpmyadmin printscreen, i have sorted it on Version number, so “Unknown” would be on top.
phpmyadmin printscreen
Any ideas?
That’s strange, there’s no UA string at all. Certainly a bot with that number of hits though.
I’ll add an option in the next release to exclude hits that do not have any user agent.

Sorry about the double post, i posted it back in wrong forum. My appologies
This should be here:
—
Just a tought? https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/undefined-property-stdclasscrawler?replies=4
Could this be the case? the error is gone from my logfile? But maybe this is causing it? Possible?
I thought as much about the double post 😉
It could be, if Plesk isn’t filling in the http header information correctly.

Hi Greg,
Few month later, and i just saw on a other site the same behavior.
This happend, when i scheduled a cron-job, and disabled the WP-CRON.
So i have a crontab, with */5 * * * * /file-to-run-in-cron/
So evry 5min, this cron is runned, so 12 times x 24hours = 288 hits (on my other site i got about 1400 hits a day. but that cron job runs 1 time a minute.
So is it possible to exclude hits from the webserver it self? so th hits are not counted as Unknow Hits.
Still like your work, keep up the great job.
