Interesting stats Irfan. Actually I think the number or percentage of fakes is much higher that. Well, guess it depends on the definition of fakers.

Funny how many hot girls are jumping on G+ these days. And they all want to be my friend. I must have swagger.

And ya, this sure doesn't help when measuring traffic.

How to deal with all these fake visitors, social media bots and trolls? This situation must be a challenge for advertising companies and bloggers? How would you measure traffic stats in the future?
