But do you know why the summary of usage (and presumably graphs) are out of 
step with the available logs?  Maybe its just a caching issue somewhere and 
I keep getting the same page, but I find if I download the logs it tells me 
something different from the summary which always seems behind.  Maybe they 
have an hourly job that updates the summary or something.
... I'll try and work out how far behind it is
