How to detect cheating counters?

Question

Search engines

Hello!

We have a competitor whose traffic is very high, while the rates for comments and open counter news views are not very high. In general, there is a suspicion of cheating, but this cannot be understood openly, since all the data of their counters is hidden. How to find this traffic? How to understand where the flow is coming from, even if it's not cheating?

This is very important for us, since advertisers look at the counter and draw conclusions from whom to place ads (for example)

Answer 1

No
PS No, well, you can personally ask them and they, of course, will not answer you
