The computation of the metrics assume several aspects that should be clarified somewhere in wikichron, probably and info page.
A (probably) non-exhaustive list of aspects and decisions taken that should be clarified/explained are:
- Definition of page, article, user, active user, anonymous user, contribution (are there any exception to the definition? how are they computed?)
- How are the edits (and other metrics) of anonymous users computed (grouped by IP address?)
- What happens with bots edits (they are removed from the metrics)? How are bots identified?
- How are the montly counts computed specially in the case of "relative" dates? By natural months or by "relative" months?
- Mathematical formula of each and every metric computed

Done in the WikiChron's wiki.
Maybe you want to take a look at the Time axis options section.
