q2a not counting views correctly with proxy setup?

Question

I have a cloudflare + varnish proxy setup and find q2a is not counting views properly as my google analytics logs show about 100 unique visitors to a question URL and q2a setup counting only 10 or so.

I have done reverse proxy setup properly to capture real IP addresses using this tutorial

And do see them being captured correctly by q2a for all users yet the number of views don't match with my analytics and my own estimates.

I am on q2a+wordpress setup. How do I debug this?
