Not necessarily. Just like the lottery, it is possible (maybe even likely) that having about a million hits in a day will have periods where nobody wins for a few days, or that a winner might happen two or three times in one day. I’ve forgotten my college statistics, but I believe there are permutation or combination equations that would explain this concept simply in symbolic terms.
