View is defined as a full DDD record access, or download when it is not done through the full record display.
Download is defined as the access to the file containing the full text of a document, image, audio or video. We add together the whole number of accesses when records hold more than one file.
Access hits from robots and administrative personnel are removed. A robot is defined as any computer that has accessed at least once a year the robots file or the oai server, or other that we have detected. Administrative computers are defined as those who have accessed maintenance pages.
GeoIP APIs are used to locate countries.
The robots detection system that we run periodically may cause changes in the numbers given in those statistics.
