Referer - The URL of an HTML page that refers to the site. Referrer data is useful to determine how users came to your site. Unknown is where there is no referring information present in the log line because the browser did not give any referrer information to the web server when the request for the file was made. This could be hits from robots, where the visitor typed in the URL directly, the user selecting a bookmark etc.
Visits - Number of visits (sometimes called client sessions) by visitors in the period. During a visit a user requests one or more files from the web server. If there is no file requests from a visitor in 30 minutes (or the time set by the administrator of the SurfStats product) then new file requests from the visitor are seen as a new session. If add images to database is selected on the profile a user requesting a single file of any type is also counted as a visit.

If it is selected not to include images in the database on a site profile then reported bandwidth usage will be lower than actual usage. The usage data reflects the size of HTTP data sent from the web server to the client. The bandwidth used for sending HTTP data from the client to the web server is not reflected, neither is any FTP bandwidth.
