Yes. Jetpack Stats requires the Jetpack plugin and a WordPress.com connection because the actual stats processing happens on WordPress.com infrastructure. SleekView reads the data Jetpack Stats has already collected through its API, so the existing Jetpack connection is enough. Jetpack Stats has both a free tier (for non-commercial sites) and a paid tier; SleekView reads either one.

Jetpack Stats sends pageview data to WordPress.com, which processes it and exposes it back through its API. SleekView calls that same API and caches the responses inside WordPress on a schedule you control. The numbers in your tables exactly match the numbers in the Jetpack Stats dashboard because they come from the same source.

No. SleekView never touches the Jetpack Stats tracking script that runs on the front end. The script keeps doing exactly what Jetpack configured it to do. SleekView only runs in WP Admin when an authorized user opens a view, and the API responses are cached locally to keep the dashboard responsive.

Jetpack Stats records the top search engine that referred each visit, but search query terms are mostly hidden by browsers (the (not provided) issue affects every analytics platform). SleekView surfaces whatever Jetpack Stats actually captured. For richer search data, pair this view with Search Console via SleekView for Site Kit.

Yes. Jetpack supports multisite with per-subsite WordPress.com connections, and SleekView respects that scoping. Views show only the data for the current site, which matches how Jetpack Stats itself behaves on multisite. Network admins can switch between sites and each one renders its own analytics independently.

Yes. The free tier exposes the same core data through the same API as the paid tier (top posts, top referrers, top countries, view counts). The paid tier unlocks longer history retention and removes the commercial-use restriction, but the underlying API surface is the same and SleekView reads either one identically.

Yes. Any saved view exports to CSV directly from the table header. The export honors the active filters, sort order, and visible columns, which makes it useful for monthly reports, slide decks, or further analysis in a spreadsheet without leaving the WordPress admin.

Jetpack Stats updates throughout the day as WordPress.com processes new pageviews. SleekView caches API responses on a configurable schedule (typically a few times a day to stay polite to the API) and reads the latest cache on each table load. Increase the cache refresh rate when you need closer-to-real-time numbers.
