Number of views was created by Stephen Sabludowsky

Hi,
How can i best tell the accurate number of views?
I am seeing some very sizeable numbers for views and i question the accuracy of them. Obviously, i do hope it is true, but, just doubt it.
The top video claims roughly 1.6M and you can see the list below.
I surely have not seen corresponding numbers on google analytics.
Thanks,

To be honest, I'm not sure why the variation comes. Actually "All Video Share" update the view count once the video player is loaded. Also the view count for a video is updated only once per the session to avoid duplicates.

Do you feel any issues on this logic ? Kindly let me know your thoughts, So I can do the possibilities.

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
Well, I checked youtube stats and they were not even close in number. I assume the Youtube stats would be the same as the stats on the site. I don't think the stats would come from a separate source. However, the youtube stats say about 20 visits or plays, not 75,000.

Most of the other video counts are correct or appear to be however, i just cannot believe i had those many visits for those other videos in the hundreds of thousands and the one over one million--plus the one at 75,000.

I checked the server stats and there were no files that had those many visits.e.
Is it an issue? Not a big one other than having accurate information and trying to determine if and why it might be inaccurate.

If you have any other questions, please go ahead and ask,
Thanks

Actually, the view counts are not updated in YouTube site. We just update in your server. I will ask our team to double check this. If it's found to be a bug. I assure for the solution in our next version itself.
