My understanding is that the stats are supposed to automatically update once per day. (I have to say that at my previous host stats were always shown in real time but that's another issue). The problem is mine don't update automatically. If I go into my stats now they will show the situation as at this morning when I last updated them (which I do by clicking the Update Now button at the top). If I do nothing and go into them tomorrow they will show the situation as at this morning when I last updated them. If I don't visit until next Tuesday they will still show the position at at this morning.
This wouldn't be a problem in itself but for one thing. If I leave my stats until next Tuesday without updating them manually and then try to update them, I will lose all stats from now until then because, in eUKhost's words, "the log file gets rotated".
I would love to be in the position you seem to be in (which is how things worked when I first signed up) where I can go into my stats every few days and see what is going on without running the risk of losing stats for the days when I haven't logged in.
