visit count when using both image and js tracking (2 replies)

Hi Friends,
I'm still relatively new to Piwik. My fledgling little site had it's highest visit count today, and I was just about to celebrate. But then I noticed, in the Visitor Location widget, that out of 17 countries represented, most showed 2 visits. Only 1 showed 1 visitor. Then I realized that most of the countries show an even number of visits.

I learned not too long ago, that the reason each visitor has 2 entries in the Visitor Log, is because of using both kinds of tracking. So my question is, does using both kinds of tracking essentially double your visitor count? I thought the Visitor Log was the only place where 2 entries represent 1 visit. But now I wonder if that affects ALL the stats?

If so, isn't there some way to get a more accurate visit count, and still record all visits (js and image tracked)? I don't mind the double listing in the Visitor Log. But it would be nice to have accurate visit stats.

Thanks for your help :)
