There are ca. 14K account creation events generated in April (from both the mobile and the desktop site) with the same user_name associated to multiple user_id's in ServerSideAccountCreation:
SELECT event_userName, COUNT(event_userId) AS dupe, MIN(timestamp), MAX(timestamp) FROM ServerSideAccountCreation_5487345 WHERE event_isSelfMade = 1 AND LEFT(timestamp, 6) = '201404' GROUP BY 1 HAVING dupe > 1 ORDER BY dupe DESC;
(all events for April seem to have been generated between April 4 and April 24)
The problem goes back to the very beginning of the log (June 2013) and continues until now, for a total of 200K entries with multiple user_ids over the course of a year.
I haven't done any further investigation but this affects anyone counting usernames as opposed to distinct user_ids.
