Unique Visitor:
A unique visitor is a host that has made at least 1 hit on 1 page of your web site during the current period shown by the report. If this host make several visits during this period, it is counted only once.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Visits:
Number of visits made by all visitors.
Think "session" here, say a unique IP accesses a page, and then requests three others without an hour between any of the requests, all of the "pages" are included in the visit, therefore you should expect multiple pages per visit and multiple visits per unique visitor (assuming that some of the unique IPs are logged with more than an hour between requests)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pages:
The number of "pages" logged. Usually pages are reserved for HTML files or CGI files, not images nor other files requested as a result of loading a "Page" (like js,css... files).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hits:
Any files requested from the server (including files that are "Pages").
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bandwidth:
Total number of bytes downloaded

hits- numbers that any content (picture files, for example...) of s2ki.com is shown to other people, but not necessarily through s2ki.com's pages.
if you hot-link pictures that are in s2ki.com's domain, and when people see it,
it counts as a "hit."
you can also somewhat figure out the amount of "stolen bandwidth" through hit number.

sueng: your wrong on both 
a visit doesn't care what page you enter from. a visit is defined as just like a store the time from when you first come in the door, till the time you leave. Everything you do is counted as 1 visit. After 30 minutes of inactivity the log tool assumes you've left and ends the visit. When you return say 2 hrs later, thats another visit.
A hit is every unique object on the site. So using this thread for example, every image is one hit also the html page itself if also a hit. If the same image is used multiple times in a page it only counts 1 time. Images hosted off site do not count as a hit to our servers.
