Server side disambiguation of ambiguous statistics

摘要

Tracking data communications are received for single properties that include ambiguous event statistics. The event statistics are disambiguated by an analytics processing system by identifying account and visitor identifier pairs from account identifiers and visitor identifiers in the tracking data communications. For each account and visitor identifier pair, ambiguous event statistics are ordered by the corresponding event times and disambiguated.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
receiving at an analytics data processing apparatus tracking data communications for a single property, the single property including a plurality of sub-properties, each sub-property being one or more respective web pages associated with a respective account identifier identifying a tracking account, each respective account identifier being different from each other respective account identifier, and each tracking data communication including:
an account identifier identifying a tracking account;a visitor identifier identifying a visitor to a sub-property associated with the tracking account;an event time; andone or more coupled event statistics, the coupled event statistics being event statistics for at least two of the sub-properties aggregated at a single property level that corresponds to the single property and that do not respectively quantify actions taken at the respective sub-properties; identifying at the analytics data processing apparatus account identifier and visitor identifier pairs from the account identifiers and visitor identifiers in the tracking data communications; and for each account identifier and visitor identifier pair:
ordering at the analytics data processing apparatus the coupled event statistics by the corresponding event times in the tracking data communications corresponding to the account identifier and visitor identifier pair; andderiving decoupled event statistics from the coupled event statistics ordered by the event times, the decoupled event statistics including statistics for only the sub-property associated with the account identifier.
