Hi:

This also works, except that the result is of class 'table':

xtabs(COUNTS ~ USER_ID + SITE, data = RAW)
       SITE
USER_ID SITE1 SITE2 SITE3
      1    10    13    22
      2    10    12    12
      3    13    44     0
      4     0     0    99

If you need a data frame, then the earlier responses apply.

HTH,
Dennis
