[Piwik-hackers] generateVisits Problems

[Matthieu Aubry]

Yusef,
one suggestion: maybe your numbers are wrong because the line
$generator->emptyAllLogTables();
was not commented, therefore when you run the script again and again, it 
adds new data to your logs.
Which explains why you get higher than expected stats.
