Another site has linked to my specific posts, but none of his trackbacks show up in my stats, or in my "recent trackbacks" component. Does this have something to do with his site, or BH?

My guess would be that the other site may have linked to you, but not sent a Trackback... They are not the same: a link is just something you put in your HTML, it does not notify another site. A Trackback is technology that contacts another website and says Hey, I just wrote about this story. Here's a bit of what I said about your story, and where you can find my story about your story...

So the question would be, did this site link to your post or send a Trackback to the Trackback URL for your post?
