Shouldn't they add up to 100% ?
Where is the other 45% traffic?

Uncle D,
You think why we are at it we can reexamine these averages LOL.
Couldn't we just make 6 cols and nix the rest. We are trying to help people make buying decisions. Less is usually more in that case. I vote we make the bars strictly about traffic quality. And call it "Traffic Mix."
You could have
Home
Mobile
Web
Proxy
Other
And make it add up to 100%
You could put the average t1 actual percentage in a more prominent place on the page.

these area completely different values and they can't be summed.
As I said earlier, you can have 99% home users and 100% from mobile device. This will sum to 199%. If their home connections are setup to run via proxy (all AOL users for example) this will add another 100% and make it 299%

Uncle D,
I hear what your saying that traffic can fit into multiple categories.
But as a buyer I don't care if it is proxy+home, proxy+mobile, proxy+web or proxy+other.
All I want to know AS A BUYER is if the traffic IS PROXY because at point it becomes
suspect/shit traffic. You don't need to classify it beyond that.
In other words PROXY should supersede everything else.
If you did it that way you could get to 100% for the traffic total.
It's my opinion that it would be more useful then, but you da master :)
Cheers!

P.S. It's more useful because Mobile / Desktop percentages would only reflect good clicks.

Here are my numbers
home 38%
mobile 9%
web 3%
proxy 5%
Shouldn't they add up to 100% ?
Where is the other traffic?
And what is it categorized as ?
Curious minds would like to know.
Thanks,
Heather

A user can access your site from home via proxy from web referrer, using own mobile phone.
Best, Uncle Dimitry.
