It means that the same people revisit your profile, or guest/unregistered/not logged in users view your profile. Either of those cases will cause the counter in increase while the names on the list don't.

Actually, no I didn't. I simply visited your profile, as you requested, and the visit was recorded and shown on your profile. 99% sure that the same users, and/or guest are viewing your profile and causing the counter to increase while the names on the list don't change. That's not unusual, actually.
No, I think yours is working correctly. I just visited your profile for the first time ever, and my username is there.
Not sure whether I ever visited yours before, or not, but my username is there now, after visiting it just a few minutes ago.
Yes your name made it now! I have had about 30 hits and no new names showing up. Its not a big deal, but I normally read anyones profile that hits mine just for the hell of it!
If you're seeing the Recent Visitors count increase, but no new names added, this is because either or both of the following:
A) The same users that are already listed in your recent visitors section revisit your profile. This adds to the hit counter without changing the displayed names because the name was already there.
B) Unregistered, Guests, not logged in users visit your profile. This adds to the hit counter, but does not change the displayed names because "Unregistered, Guests, not logged in" users are not tracked by name
Therefore, this is not a technical issue and nothing is wrong with the system. Instead, this is the way the feature was written by the developers.

Understand.....I just never noticed it going so long without the names changing and the count rising so much, that's all. I find it hard to believe the same people are continuously coming back to see the same profile over and over again. I suppose I could have had over a 100 unregistered guests but I doubt it. At any rate it seems to be working now.
