Added a note explaining how to investigate an unusually large delta change in unique visitors.

Recency and Frequency

Added the following information to the Limitations and Rules section:

• Frequency-capping expressions include all the users whose number of trait realizations is below a desired value.

  For example:

  frequency([1000T]) <= 5

  This expression includes all users that have realized the trait with the ID "1000" fewer than five times, including users who have not realized the trait.

• When you need recency/frequency requirements to be less than a specific number of times or days, you must join that trait to another with an AND operator.

  Using the above example, frequency([1000T]) <= 5, the expression becomes valid when joined with another trait.

  For example:

  frequency([1000T]) <= 5 AND isSiteVisitorTrait

• For advertising frequency-capping use cases, you could create a segment rule similar to the following:

  (frequency([1000T] <= 2D) >= 5)?

  This expression includes all users that have realized the trait with the ID "1000" in the last 2 days more than five times.

  You can achieve the capping by sending this segment to the ad server and then include a NOT on the segment in the ad server. This approach achieves greater performance in Audience Manager, while still serving the same purpose for frequency capping.
