There are tons of reports in the Google Analytics Help forums reporting a bug that the Google Analytics reports stopped working and updating yesterday.
The weird thing is that it isn't impacting everyone, i.e. my reporting is fine. It is also not impacting the real time reporting. Just the standard reporting is not working or updating, but the real time is indeed showing traffic to the sites.
Here is a screen shot from one Google Analytics user showing the issue with the reports:
Again, there are tons and tons of Google Analytics users currently complaining about zero statistics showing up for them in their Analytics. Personally, I cannot replicate this but there are swarms of complaints.
Here is one of the many complaints:
Google analytics has been working fine until today. I have been getting 400 to 500 visits a day and today all of a sudden it shows 0. Do anyone know a fix?
So don't panic if your stats look horrible today, it is a wider issue and I am sure Google will fix it.
Also, the Google Analytics Dashboard now does confirm issues:

We have recently set up Google Authorship and Web Master Tools on these accounts. Could there be a correlation?

Is this just occurring for everyone's data as of last night or is anyone else seeing the dropoff earlier in the month? I am wondering if my company's work with updating webmaster tools and authorship has impacted this somehow.

Sure. You ruined Google Analytics worldwide. Be prepared for the charges.

Well if people worldwide were changing similar things...due to the massive Penguin 2.0 changes...it would be possible to occur large scale.

No issues over here, will be keeping an eye on it. Although, I imagine whatever caused this bug has done its damage already and the two buckets (affected and not affected) are pretty much settled at this point.

It seems to be fixed now.

Absolutely agree. If every Chinese farmer, American driver and European retire would be changing similar things due to the massive Penguin 2.0 changes, then it would be large scale. Very large. Even huge scale. Worldwide, huge, Penguin 2.0 scale.

Why so called expert web people continue to use SPYWARE like GA I have no idea. PIWIK is free and it is also far more comprehensive than GA. BUT, the main point is that YOU own the data and not a spyware company like google. All google does with the data you provide them is make it harder for you to rank in the SERPS. They also share all your personal data and your visitors personal data with the FEDS. Now, if you don't care about privacy that's fine but if you have one shred of decency about you, kick GA to the curb and use another service. It's not like you don't have a choice now is it.

This happened to me; google adsense showing 1000 views, google analytics showing 2. Definitely prefer the first of these!

So I get that there is a problem, but it resulted in me not getting paid last month. Nothing seems to be updating. when I check my analytics on youtube, it says that I made $66 in August. but when i go into google adsense it says I made $0 in August and isn't recording anything else either. The only thing that is working is I put an ad on my tumblr page and it seems to be calculating that. There's no way to get in contact with anyone from adsense, so I just really don't know what to do. it's very frusterating!
