just checking on one of my accounts, the bandwith usage stats in whm shows it at 40.011407gb for this one subdomain, while the bandwidth total in awstats shows it as 30.11 GB. quite a difference there i'd say... which should i go by? considering its a customer i'd like to go by the larger lol, but i'd also wanna know why there is a difference in the stats listed for the same domain. also for the previous month whm lists it as 26.441650gb, while awstats shows 38.24 GB. now i'm even more confused bout what to go by. anyone have any input on this one? thanks.

Awstats only counts web traffic, whereas whm counts smtp, ftp, etc. Thats why there is a discrepancy.
