The main feature it would add is flexibility. With the old system we basically had 2 options:
1. Show the number of visitors every day for the past month.
2. Pick a random day from each of the past 27 months and show those.
Situation 1 was fine for short term trends, but situation 2 was only "acceptable" for showing long term trends. It didn't show the average a month or anything - it just picked a randomish one, so it was imprecise.
The 27 month limit also meant we couldn't go back further than a little over 2 years - and we've lasted a lot longer than that now.
Statcounter will allow us to say "Show us every single day for the past year" or "Show us the average for every month last year" and, significantly, "Show us where we were 3 years ago" (that is, if we last until 2012) _________________
