Server showing incorrect playercount?

I've been noticing for the past 2 weeks that whenever my DayZ server(67.228.177.77:3068) goes above 8-10 players the gametracker page will report 0 players online for a few hours. The player count is correctly reported under DayZ commander. Obviously this is messing up my server stats.

Has anyone else ever had this issue or know how to resolve it?

What seems to be the case for your server is it is reporting the correct player count, but none of the players are reported in HLSW which may be messing up your stats. The query on GameTracker seems to be reporting the players at the current time, though. I will move this to the bug reports forum to look into further.
I am retired from GameTracker after 11 years and will not be responsive for support requests.

Hello,

We have made some changes to our DayZ mod scanning system to help reduce the 0 player outage problem.

Please let us know if the problem persists.

Best regards.
I do not provide support over PM. Please ask your questions on the GameTracker forums.

Firstly, you might want to create a new topic in the Bug Reports section as this section ( Bug Reports [RESOLVED] ) may be ignored.
Might be best to paste a link to this thread into your new topic.

To your question; Does it do this continuously or is it possible that it is still reporting 14 players when there were 14 players online earlier?
The scanner apparently runs about once every 4 minutes, but updates to your server status page (Online Players) can take up to 20 minutes on a bad day, and closer to 8-10 minutes after the scan itself. The results are also averaged over the period of approximately an hour before updating the Historical Data graph on your server page. These updates can take considerably longer to display (up to 2 hours I estimate in worst case).
