I can count unique sessions without using or storing the IP address or an identifier. Maybe that represents a fair middle ground?

Edit: I implemented this approach. It's less accurate but removes the need for any representation of the IP address.

Cool, not sure how you did that of course, you should probably if you want to grow this do an external code audit or something like that, but great job, also how fast you change stuff!

Thanks! The core code (capture and post-processing) sits around 250 lines. It's short enough to retain which makes iterating quick and fairly painless.

Considering I'm about 2-months in, I'm happy with the progress and general direction.
