Wouldn't our numbers reflect all unique devices
access Hungarian wikipedia
from across the globe and not just Hungary? I just ran
some queries
internally(where we have >country breakdowns) and found that ~1.38 million
unique devices accessing hu.wikipedia in the month of March '16 come from
outside Hungary.
Correct, the traffic (in terms of devices) is spread across the globe. A
pretty sizable portion of traffic (in terms of devices) for Spanish
Wikipedia comes from Brazil, Italy, France and Canada for example.

Like Nuria said: this is unique devices, not

in the Global North use more than one device to access Wikipedia (desktop,
tablet, phone).
Sure, and browses which rejects or periodically delete cookies will be
counted multiple times, and a device might use multiple browsers
(especially the embedded browsers on mobile devices)... even taking all
that into account, a factor of four seems like a large disparity between
this data and the audience panel numbers.
