Internet News   Internet News : Aminet: Download statistics available
   posted by cgutjahr on 13-Nov-2006 15:52:20 (2565 reads)
Aminet now features download statistics: download charts for both the current month aswell as an all time top 50 are now available at our stats page - the current leader may actually come as a surprise to most of you. Additionally, each package overview page now lists the number of downloads for the actual package (Example). All HTTP-Downloads from all of the Aminet mirrors are considered when creating the statistics.



A note to uploaders: If you replace an existing package with a new upload with the exact same name, the download statistics for your package will not be resetted - e.g. if you upload disk/misc/foo.lha to replace an existing, older version of disk/misc/foo.lha, the download counter will be preserved. In all other cases - like uploading foo-1.1.lha replacing foo-1.0.lha - the download counter will be set to zero again. Note that using version numbers or similar indicators in filenames is not recommended anyway.

In addition to the current month's top uploaders, the stats page also features an all time uploader chart now.

While we're at it, we would like to welcome ftp.uni-bremen.de to our pool of mirrors. This Aminet veteran is finally back online and now sports a full mirror, which means that Aminet now consists of eight active servers - with more coming up soon.

hmmmmm, just as a test I looked at files I had previously downloaded (in the pix/picon dir) and they seem to have "0" downloads. They Should have at least "1" (me).

I wonder why those files aren't correct?

Very interesing indeed. And very positive news: the number of uploads is rising again!

Anyway, there seems to be a bug: the statistics for November 2006 and the total statistics are identical.

Maybe people didn't like them after downloading so they returned them causing the counter to go down.

The download statistics was started during November unfortunately so that's why it's identicl to the total.

Yes, I noticed that too. Whatever I download with 0 on, it stays at 0.

It adds to 1 here, which files? Sure the package page is not cached?

basically every file in the pix/picon dir. for example: 2001_icons. I just now checked and it still says "0". and I KNOW I downloaded that one.

and i never drink while downloading

thanks for keeping up the improvements. I know it's only a matter of time when these minor glitched get smoothed over.

I meant that it should count when downloading it, not that it should sow all previous failed downloads. So try downloading it again and check that the counter rises
