      I'm doing some research for an e-commerce store, and I'm getting very different link counts from the Mozbar & Opensite explorer. Any idea why? Which is more accurate?

        Are you using the exact same URL on both? Including whether it has www, trailing slash, etc?

            Hey Chris,

            All of the data for both the Mozbar and OSE comes from the same index, so you shouldn't really be seeing different information between the two. Can you please let me know the URL that you are on when using the Mozbar and then the full OSE URL that the Mozbar directs you to when you click the link for the root domain stats? I am looking for the actuall opensiteexplorer.org URL, i.e. http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/links?site=www.seomoz.org. That information will help me investigate if you are experiencing a bug.

            I look forward to hearing from you soon.

            -Chiaryn
