Yes, things did return to “normal” after a few days. I should have just waited and been patient!

Yeah, mine also dropped 50% after just migrating over to Google today. But I’ve heard it shall be back to normal after a week ???

As observed by Liz and others, it does seem the stats have returned to "normal." Yes, Stephen, they certainly could be inflated! Coupled with my ClustrMap statistics and server hit stats, however, I'm doubtful they are. In any event, I'm glad to have made this transition. Google's march to take over many aspects of the web continues, eh?

Wes
I had the same thing happen when I converted, but after 48 hours they seemed to be “normal”—although I still have high fluctuation (50+ one day and 50- the next???). My analytics also went nutty for a few days…not sure if there is a correlation there?

Same problem for me, too, Wes, although this morning I see that my stats are back up where they were before the migration so maybe it’s something that happens at the beginning. Although I do have to agree with Stephen that it all makes me question the accuracy of ANY stats I get via Feedburner.

I’ve had the exact same problem man…it ain’t just you.

Yes, it is an across the board problem. I didn’t move mine yet. And, this is nothing new – it’s been happenning off and one for months now … someone told me that it had to do with them dropping the counts of RSS subscribers from different readers, netvibes, I think.

I think it’s an across-the-board problem. I didn’t merge my account, but the Feedburner stats for my blog dropped by more than 50% this week…

I am seeing the same thing and have noticed the value is the same for the last week or so. I just hope readers are getting the content. I’m tempted to not use the service as to lose so many users in one go is a little concerning.

You’re not alone in your experience. After I moved my feed last weekend my subscriber count went from 2100+ to roughly 700. There are people all over the blog-o-sphere complaining about the Google/FeedBurner merge.
It seems that most people are still receiving updates through my RSS feeds, but the analytic numbers are way off. Have you also noticed that item use and unique use numbers are not reporting accurately?

It could also be that your old stats were inflated.
