I want to know how I can find out how many % of the views have downloaded compared to the downloaders

It would be a nice feature too, if mouse hovers over the number of viewers or Downloaders it would show the same thing like:

XXX views
XX :Downloads

But if it isn't made,(as I suspect) can any one help me figure out how to do that kind of maths?

Thanks in Advance

Those sorts of figures would only really be worthwhile if it could work out the ratio of unique viewers to unique downloaders, but I don't store specific details on viewing habits and the calculations would put a ridiculous strain on the server that just isn't viable.

AAh okay, I see the point...
thanks,

but how do I then just use a stupid calculator to find the % of downloads?

# of downloads divided by the # of views... the windows calculator does quite well there...

but as dark mentioned many people view one page more than once, the editor for example...
storing that data to only check for original views would not only annoy the server bandwith but also attack the protection of personal data and surfing habits similiar to ad tracking cookies... i hate such things and would not be happy with such a thing

It was a nice idea though. thumbsup.gif I try to keep this in mind when I see that my mod has only 40 downloads but over 800 views.

Is this what you mean?

(yes I know they are cheat-ish, and cheat items don't get many DLs, but I made them just to kind of get started...)
