You could try http://drupal.org/project/google_analytics_counter -- but of course, that will by definition give you smaller page view counts (only what Google Analytics records, i.e. no bot accesses etc.)

No cdn. The data is there in accesslog, so it has not been deleted yet. They use Coremetrics. But they want (close to) real time data in the site itself.
 
It must have something to do with the referrer. Accesslog records without a referrer URL seem to count.

3 thoughts.
  1. Are you using a CDN like akamai?
  2. I'm not sure if {node_counter} is tied to a cron run in statistics.module. If it is the 'discard access logs older than' might be the cause of your problem.
  3. Why not use Google Analytics or webalizer or similar?

You don't have cacherouter on there or any other fast_pagecache implementing modules, do you?

No, no Boost. We do have eAccelerator, but that shouldn't do anything to Apache. Statistics are very important to the Marketing team that are paying for this.

Are you possibly using boost or another caching function which avoids Apache for some requests?

I was just browsing the Accesslog and saw over 100,000 hits on node/1000 from Wikipedia, but the node_counter table shows less than 1,000 views total. Why do the referrals from Wikipedia not count?
 
I ask because we are increasingly needing to get view counts per day, not just total. I can easily add a hook_nodeapi('view') to count from today, but wanted to get historical counts as well.
