Make sure Piwik complies with WAA definitions

Priority: critical Milestone: Piwik 0.9.9 - Stable release

Cc: Sensitive: no

Description

There are definitions for unique visitors, bounce rate, etc. that Piwik needs to comply to. See the full documentation on  http://www.webanalyticsassociation.org/attachments/committees/5/WAA_Web_Analytics_Definitions_20080922_For_Public_Comment.pdf

We need to make sure that Piwik definitions comply to these. We already know that unique visitors over a week/month/year are not correct (see #8)

(In [2490]) Refs #396

  • updating exit_rate calculation to have nb of pages view as the denominator, rather than number of visits. Complies with WAA Page Exit Ratio (ie. Exit rate) proposal.

I read the specs and checked that all Piwik metrics comply with the definitions.

I slightly updated the FAQs at http://piwik.org/faq/general/
