Who's Online

We are not certain, but it seems that the "who's online" on one of our client sites is reporting higher than actual visitors.
In general, we find 10-20 listed, but once we observerd it as high as 141. The web trends indicated that the previous month had about 2600 unique visitors. We would have expected this to be higher if the number online were so high. Has anyone else experienced this?

This site is on 1.2.4.1.

Re: Who's Online

A number of improvements to the whos-online infrastructure have been made in the many releases since the version you're using. v1.3.x has a lot more intelligent handling built-in.
