Are your stats accurate? I'm not sure they are. E.g I published a post yesterday (2021-Mar-https://pontifex.substack.com/p/google-blocks-infogalactic which according to your posts page has had 179 views.
Yet going onto your stats page, I've had 101 visitors yesterday and another 55 today. 101+55=156 which is less than 179.

Is this because one is measuring views and the other visitors, and some visitors looked at the URL multiple times?
The way it should work is the stats graph should measure visits, unique visitors for that day and pageviews. And the same data should be available for every individual post. Also it would be nice to know the source of view on a per-post level, not just the referring website but the URL. or if its from a search engine, what search terms.
Yes, an Integrated view would help us solve these doubts. I also encounter these doubts. It's not that clear at first sight so we tend to think the stats are not accurate....
