JavaScript stats

I use thecounter.com and its JavaScript-based counter. My both my VOMA and
RJP reports show 1% disabled JavaScript and 6% unknown. These get mostly
academic, government and NGO users. Since I'm on a slow connection I can see
that what probably happens is the JavaScript not completing before the
viewer moves on. This registers as JavaScript disabled or JavaScript status
unknown. My nav pops right up and viewers use it to leave the home page
before the counter is finished. This would be more common on pages with more
graphics than my austere pages. On a different site where there is lots of
info on the home page, rather than it being a gateway, I get 1% disabled and
3% unknown, which would support my theory that the no JavaScript stats go
down if the counter has time to function.
