Assuming this is from a HTTP log, I'm just curious if you took into
account that many Windows users have "download managers" that make
repeated requests to get a single file. You see this in the log with a
206 (partial content) HTTP response code. So you might have anywhere
from 10 to 20 hits in the log to download a single file. This makes it
a pain to get accurate download statistics.
