Thanks Mumps for the input.

I think I found whats been happening... I was splitting the uncompressed user.gz in to sizes around 10meg. The spliter was doing what it was suppose to and didn't create any bogus splits.. well... at least after I fixed a bug in it. I left the closing ? out of the header. lol
Any way.. the issues was with the way I was parsing the split sections. Yahoo server times out after 5 mins even tho I called the set_time_limit(0); function in php so I split it up thinking it would stop the time outs.. after that, even tho the scripts ran fine on my server, they still wont on Yahoo's. I either get a 501 server error or page can not be displayed error. I gave up on that.
Anyway, I went back to parsing the whole 254meg uncompressed file and it found all 225 users. I mad an assumption that it would be fast to decomp be for parsing or do it on the fly.. not sure if it is or not..
Anyway.. even tho I have studied my code for hours looking for a bug that i never did find, it seems to work great parsing the whole file.
Oh well.. back to working on other things now that issue is cleared up.. LOL

Humm I understand that part about the users credits and leaving teams.
Let me tell you what im trying to or have done..
I joinded a team.. Carl Sagan.
I did a graphic for it.. its in my sig here.
I started working on a cruncher for that user.gz database to improve the graphic and it works great.
The issue is, the totals I get from the master user.gz and what seti and boincstats is reporting dont jive. I was thinking it was a coding issue or the way im pre-splitting the xml but I have check and recheck and the code is good so I dont think im 'not finding' team members the the user DB yet the numbers dont match.. I get 160.. the team page says 225 active.
Is it posible that some of the team members are NOT part of seti? I mane, could they be crunching other work and never done anything for seti and thats why they dont show in the user.gz?
I gotta get this fixed.. its driving me crazy!

Total members 266 (view)
Active members 142 (view)
Members with credit 225 (view)

And those numbers don't match BoincStats. So I don't think you need to worry about being driven crazy.

So it's 225 With Credit not Active Although, you are still 18 over the current Active mark. At least it's a small enough count to be able to try to reconcile the two lists...

OK.. asking a few questions here..

    Is there a place where I can get the stats for a single team? I mean, in XML format so I can digest it myself.
    If there is NOT a XML file for each team, what XML file should I look at to get all of a teams stats?
    could it be.. teams.gz?


Oh well.. I hope some one can help here..
I have wrote a cool program to parse the users.xml but the total that belong to my team is off compared to what boincstats and seti is showing :(

Any help would be very cool!

Update: the team.gz has the teams stats.. i need the members listing :(


Actually, IIRC, Mark is the one that made mention in an older thread that Team statistics can't be correlated back to their members simply because points earned by each member are only added to the totals for the team they belonged to at the time they earned the points. If you change teams, the points you earned while on the first team still show in your user totals, and your original teams totals, but don't get added to your new teams total. Only those points you earn after the change apply to your new team.

Same applies to when members leave. I wouldn't be surprised to have somebody be able to point out a team that has no members, but millions of points.
