This probably just adds up all of those pings and creates a total online time.
This. The software keeps track of your sessions and using your last online time in conjunction with your session timeout time, it can calculate how long you've spent on the site.
As for myself, it's been 2 Weeks, 4 Days, 10 Hours.
