there's no way to distinguish between traffic on cause pages, traffic on vanity pages, and other traffic i.e. if you asked me how much traffic we get per day on all cause pages combined, I can't give you an answer.

We should change the analytics tracking to track a custom URL, so that the user still sees the vanity URL, but it tracks as a different URL.

In particular:

1. http://www.broadcause.com/lorenyu will show up in google analytics as http://www.broadcause.com/users/lorenyu.

2. http://www.broadcause.com/Project-Goodness will show up in google analytics as http://www.broadcause.com/cause-pages/lorenyu (This should also apply to cause subpages)
