I have always wanted to know... when private trackers are down for an extended period of time like this, does your stats still update correctly? I guess it would, but the torrent agent would have to acculamate all of the data and once the tracker was back up and the agent could communicate with it... it would work.
depends, but in this case the tracker is also down
no I think it depends, because if the tracker is down for a while like in this case, you get 0 up and 0 down, so there is no data to send even when the site is up.
