Not entirely on the same topic, but a friend sent this article through to
me:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/business/newsid_1047000/1047901.stm

Basically, PriceWaterhouseCoopers are suggesting that most sites statistics
are under or over-counted due to spiders, not reading web logs, properly,
etc. So the bean counters are getting in on the act...didn't spot a mention
of ABCe, but I just skimmed it.
