Web counters are usually used for recording the number of times a web page has been visited. Apart from the recording of pageview, advertisement publishers also use Web counters to count the number of clicks made by potential customers on the Intemet ads. As pe$oormance-based Intemet advertisement pricing models are becoming popular and generally acceptable, there is a needfrom the perspective ofthe advertisers to ensure the accuracy of the values recorded by Web counters. This paper describes the idea of a virtual IP, and proposes a mechanism for assuring the reasonableness and faimess of the values of Web counters. The result is an accuracy counter (AC). The AC is a real system. It has been successfully tested in a related class project.
