I agree close is good enough. If you have the spare time fix them if not don't. I do not use the stats for donor rank I use the third party stats most of the time to save bandwidth on the stats server for others.

Definitely do not remove the ranking. There will be too many people that will freak-out if they have no ranking. A wrong ranking is better than no ranking. With a wrong ranking only people that check ranking over time freak-out which is a small minority of the people that check it.

Keep the ranking, close enough is good enough as others have said. If it can be sorted out later to be more accurate, good, take your time.

ok, thanks. We're also looking to see what we should do to get them exactly the same. As I mentioned above, we have a plan, although it would be a change in how the stats system works. I plan to get that plan in motion on Monday.
