Interesting that Google's AI can make sense of the nonsensical query I found in my Bing search data.

Data Sampling Problems In Annual Reports | Analytics Edge Help Google Analytics uses statistical sampling to improve responsiveness for large queries. There is nothing wrong with statistical sampling — it will usually produce numbers close to the actual, but not…

In Google Analytics, if you grab a full 12 months of data at once, be careful that the data is not sampled.

Another data point: the number of impressions vs position shows the scraping-to-100 problem was never really eliminated, just reduced... and recently spiked again. Depends on whether your queries are being tracked, I guess.
Note how there are still impressions upto position 100, then nothing.

Hey @glenngabe.bsky.social , something is happening... GSC has been extra slow at loading data since Thursday last, really long 'prompts' are appearing in the data, and impressions are up/positions down again (for me at least).

Well, it turns out this is not a 'leak'...it is most likely people using Google search as if they were in AI Mode; relying on AI Overviews to answer their 'prompt'. There has been a notable increase in really long queries captured in GSC recently.

It continues...in my GSC data this week, multiple entries like "for the company domain: ***.com provide their company bio with a max of 300 characters. return a json object with the company bio in english. do not return any other text or fallback text or any reference or citation..."

Why is it that data collection always seems to stop when they release a new feature? No new data since Thursday?

- does the data have to be sent back to the AI, or could it be displayed/saved locally for privacy and use the AI just for query generation?
- more connector functionality to be exposed, but need to think about how to implement it to make life easier for the AI.

....so many ideas...

- installation is a breeze. No command line mumbo-jumbo. Simple logins avoid the whole project/credential file nightmare.
- building a local MCP server with a user interface opens up a lot of possibilities.

Thoughts so far:
- it's not significantly faster, although no direct comparison tests have been run yet -- I want to compare tokens used; they should be a lot lower.
- getting an AI to NOT use the API terminology was surprisingly difficult --I had previously installed the official analytics-mcp.

Experimental...a local GA4 MCP server with a simple installer that doesn't require the AI to figure out how to work with the APIs.

Premise: AI's shouldn't be forced to work with raw API methods. Using AE connector tech should dramatically reduce the effort to query and process the responses.

Confused....how would I threaten or intimidate another person by talking to an AI? Isn't that a 'private' conversation?
