Just it seems that nearly 6000 online is kinda high, even for such a wonderful place as this...

Well, I rarely close the window, so I am always "online."

Maybe lots of other people do that, too?

Then why are there less than 1000 members and guests (combined) online now?

The user count is accurate.

If a big site links to ours, even for a short period of time, we could expect to see a big jump in the number of users.

The count includes both guest users and members.

On the 26th, my guess, is somewhere big linked to us and we got a number of visitors.

Everything in our logs confirms this as being accurate.
