I went to the site and tried the on-line demo. It counted me as using Windows even though my system reports the OS properly and said I am using IE even though I use Opera 3.62 for BeOS. No wonder the stats don't add up. If they can't place you in the proper category, they place you in the default, Window$ and IE.
