Member time does not capture the time of actions, such as kudos, unless the user requests a new page after the action. Nor does it include the last 30 minutes after the last page request before the session times out. Member time is calculated from the time of the first page request, such that a session that started at 11:50pm on day 1 and ending at 12:15am on day 2 is counted as member time for day 1. @StanGromer Thanks for the reply, I'm talking about just the count of people online though and not the time they've been online. I don't see anything in the source code on the home page that determines where the count comes from. So it seems the number on the home page is a randomly generated number and not based on the members online page or based on unique connections to the community. I also wonder if each node (would have a different number of "XXX Members Online" ) even if they were loaded at the same moment.
