mishellbaker on "Spam pageview "stats""

$

I've noticed that an increasing number of my "pageviews" on the stats page are marked as coming from spam type sites like dating-online2u.blogspot.com/2010/04/… and buyingstocksonline.bloggerreviews.org… etc., sites which actually do not have links to my blog and therefore must be manipulating the stats feature somehow in an attempt to get me to click on the links. It's gotten so it's almost impossible for me to pick out actual legitimate pageviews, and the daily numbers mean absolutely nothing because well over half of them aren't coming from anyone who is actually viewing my blog. If I ever hope to get advertisers on my blog etc. I need to have a real way to tell how many people are viewing my blog. Is there nothing to be done to prevent "fake page views" from clogging up my stats?
