I've had problems finding some sites in our referrals as well. A common source of
the problem is either 1) the site refers from numerous, multiple URLs that may
differ from their main commercial URLs; and 2) the referrals may come from an
ad-server address rather than the actual commercial site.

Other than trusting the reports you get from the advertiser (dangerous!), the only
option I can think of is having them point the banners to a specific, web page, and
tracking page views in Analog's Request Report. Or, if you have a database-driven
site that uses parameters (e.g. "index.asp?ID=value"), you might be able to add a
"fake" parameter, and track this using the "Internal Search" report. Myself, I
configure this report to report on the parameter "source", and give advertisers
URLs ending with "source=advertisername." Then the Internal Search report organizes
all such click-through counts in one place.

One of my sites is doing a click-through campaign with one of their 
industries major websites. They report 

Impressions . .Clicks . . Yield
22,062 . . . . . 281 . . . .1.27%

Our reports show only a very small number of hits form any referrer 
that might be associated with their website. I am not familiar with 
click-throughs, but would assume we would see the activity in our 
referrer reports.  Am I missing something?

Thanks for any advice you can offer. :-)
