# insert new page record in table counters or update it if already exists
        try:

                                                                ON DUPLICATE

        # update existing visitor record if same pin and same host found
        try:
                cursor.execute( '''UPDATE visitors SET hits = hits + 1, useros

browser, date, pin, host))

        # insert new visitor record if above update did not affect a row
        if cursor.rowcount == 0:
                cursor.execute( '''INSERT INTO visitors(hits, host, useros, 
browser, date) VALUES(%s, %s, %s, %s, %s)''', (1, host, useros, browser, date) )

======================================================

I;am now convinced the hash solution isn't reversible and also isn't unique.
I'am trying the database oriented solution.

pin column = 5-digit integer Primary Key.

When i'am inserting a new record to table counters, a sequenced number is 
crated as pin. Thats works ok.


But when i try to Update or Insert into the visitors table the 'pin' comunn is 
needed to to identify the rrecord for which iam trying to update like here:

================================
cursor.execute( '''UPDATE visitors SET hits = hits + 1, useros = %s, browser = 
%s, date = %s WHERE pin = %s AND host = %s''', (useros, browser, date, pin, 
host))
================================

how is the mysql statement is going to find the 'pin' to update the specific 
record.
And also in here:

================================
if cursor.rowcount == 0:
                cursor.execute( '''INSERT INTO visitors(pin, hits, host, 
useros, browser, date) VALUES(%s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s)''', (pin, 1, host, 
useros, browser, date) )
================================

'pin' column's value is also need to make insert
