Yeah, it certainly seems to not follow any easily discernible pattern
I have visited at multiple times of the day over several days and it is only today it has “corrected” itself
Traced my initial sign-up time to the forum. It was 1:58pm.
I’m still showing 6 days visited, so if my days visited changes to 7 at or after 1:58pm - the mystery is probably solved.

I been on here for years 
I’ve had a look behind the scenes and can’t seem to find any settings that would affect your timezone or ‘days visisted.’

discourse disproved distheory
Well, that’s that guess out the window… I’m still showing as 6 days and it is now after the time I initially joined the forum. Maybe there’s a programmed delay involved.
EDIT: except we don’t know how ‘live’ the stats page really is. Maybe it is updated at intervals
So many questions about a minor and irrelevant issue

Theory #99 - discourse uses UTC, so at 2:58pm BST (1:58pm UTC), my discourse ‘day’ should start.

Theory #104 - someone has spotted this thread and is sneakily resetting it back to a few hours just as its about to tick over to Day 7…

This is more plausible than my previous theories - and I’m still showing as visited for 6 days 
Of course, one could just download the Discourse source and have a look at how it’s calculated…
(In other news, I’m one of two people that have 365 days visited in the year view… though it also shows I’m exceptionally stingy with my likes.)
