Hits ~ represents the total number of requests made to the server during the given time period. So, every time someone searches through a search engines and a SR Link comes up that counts as a hit. That tells us that we are connected to the right search engines and doing some great marketing of the site!

Files ~ represents the total number of hits (requests) that actually resulted in something being sent back to the user. Not all hits will send data, such as 404-Not Found and requests for pages that are already in the browsers Cache.

Sites ~ is the number of unique IP addresses/hostnames that made requests to the server. Care should be taken when using this metric for anything other than that. Many users appear to come form a single site, and they can also appear to come from many ip addresses so it should be used simply as a rough gauge as to the number of visitors to your server.

Visits ~ occur when some remote site makes a request for a page on your server for the first time in a pre-specified period. So, when someone either goes to the site directly or through a search engine is counted as a Visit. As long as the same site keeps making requests within a given timeout period, they will all be considered part of the same Visit. If the site makes a request to the server, and the length of time since the last request is greater than the specified timeout period (default is 30 minutes), a new visit is started and counted, and the sequence repeats. Since only Pages will trigger a Visit, remote sites that link to graphic and other non-page URLs will not be counted in the Visit totals, reducing the number of false Visits. This is the more accurate of all the stats provided for this site. Don't be fooled when people brag about hits, they don't mean the viewer went any closer than the Yahoo page it was listed on.

Pages ~ are those URLs that would be considered the actual page being requested, and not all the individual items make it up (such as graphics and audio clips). Some people call this metric page views or page impressions, and defaults to any URL that has an extension of .htm, .html, or .cgi
