If you can provide us with the definition what exactly is a 'individual
page'? If a 'page' (something what you see on your screen) is
dynamically generated (and most are) than you can not count individual
pages. And because of the 'deck' concept of WAP 'pages', how does they
count?
Even if a URL is unique this doesn't mean that the 'page' behind
must be unique. Apache has a phantastic and not easy to understand
module for URL rewriting, which can give you the look as the same URL
all the time, even if it's not.
We need a defined measurement to understand each other, or we will stuck
in cultural and knowledge misunderstandings all the time. People still
mix 'hits' with 'pageimpressions' and 'visits', it's awful.
