You can set User Tracking to not record spiders (this is recommended). Unsure but that may contribute to the discrepancy. To be sure check your server access logs.
Also keep in mind User Tracking only records visits to the shop (and/or admin). Your Google Analytics configuration may possibly be configured to record your entire website.
Note User Tracking can be set to not record admin logins if you wish. Depends on the code placed in your footer file.
If you're not sure what I am referring to here, search this thread for a not too distant post by me.
Note no developer is further developing or bugfixing this mod. But even in it's current form it continues to be a very useful tool.
