Re: Total yearly hits' stats for an investor's kit

@Col_Needham​ not sure I copy that, if I went through each week of a cast member's stats and wrote the total of that week down each week methodically in each month for 52 weeks you are saying it does not represent the total year's hits? So then what does it represent? This is not seeming logical to me so far, curious here, is that not what the graph represents?

@Col_Needham​ it says based on algorithms, so are they not hits, then train of thought is if they are not hits, what the heck are they what do I tell potential investors 1.47 billion for the year represents, or is it just not accurate and nowhere near actual statistical information? It does not explain, your link is too general for what I am asking here and the link is rather vague about it all.

@KmcDow92​ As mentioned above, the most popular name on IMDb each week is STARmeter #1 so all you are adding is someone's position in the chart. To take an example from music, Taylor Swift's latest album is currently #1 in the Billboard chart and she has been at #1 for 11 weeks -- if you were to add those position numbers together you would get 11 -- Taylor did not only sell 11 copies in this time :-).  Similarly even if you were to add STARmeter numbers together then it's actually the lowest number possible which would be the best.

Hope this helps.
