On hub stats, where it says, 'not all views have a discernable source', where do they come from?
Why is there no discernable source? Can someone list examples of possible sources. Would this include the hub feed, forum, etc?
I'd assume the hub feed and forum are more likely to be listed as "hubpages.com"
Another assumption would be that undiscernible views may refer to people browsing on a browser that has no cookies active and is very secure. Hubpages may be able to register the views but not gather any other information about them.
Can't think well enough to even try to understand the answer to this one tonight.. I'm still trying to figure out what the bright blue arrow pointing down on two of my hubs listed in my account are!
The blue arrows simply indicate views are down for those particular hubs. Thanks anyway. I think Wry is correct in her response.

I'm not planning on deleting anything, I'm just curious. If I had one hub that went viral and got me 100,000 views, earning me an accolade, would I still have that accolade if I deleted it?

There are three or four comments(one is at 24 hours so it may not count.) How could I have 0 page views if people are reading it and even stopping to comment?
