: Add This - Shares vs Clicks Using AddThis can someone please explain what the differences is if someone shares but does not click what does that mean? EX: I have 10 Shares and 7 clicks.

As for the click/share discrepancy, have you enabled address bar sharing? That would be at least one way you could generate more shares than actual clicks.
