All the stats should be updated every time it does it's crawl with the
exception of archived caches. If you just recently made a change on an
archived cache then there with be a slight varience in your actual stats
to what is shown. The change you made would have had to have been within
the last couple of day because I had to upgrade the archived info for the
new years bug we had.
I plan to get the archived caches updateing once a day or maybe once every
other day fairly soon so that there will only be short amounts of time
where the stats aren't totally correct. I don't really want to crawl the
archived caches more than that due to the fact that most of the time they
don't change and it's just a wasted of internet for Jeremy and us to do
them any more.
