The Wordpress "Recent Comments" widget is having similar issues.
The good news is the ID folks seem to have fixed some significant bugs with Comment Counts yesterday.
Hopefully they are working on this as we speak.-

My recent comments widget hasn't updated since this morning. Yep, something is wrong. -

4 HOUR DELAY before Wordpress 'sees' ID enabled Comments. Comment Time Stamp issue!Folks, I have been writing and emailing you a great deal about a problem with ID, Wordpress and my comment count on the index page.
After a bit of digging and days of frustration, "Wordpress Standard Comment Links" and "IntenseDebate Enhanced Comment Links" aside, I have found the actual issue.
There appears to be a 4 HOUR DELAY before ID enabled comments are 'seen' by Wordpress.
***THIS*** is what is messing up my comment count, and I would not be surprised if this was what was creating problems for others.
Here is a screen shot of the recent comments section on my dashboard taken at around 1:43PM Eastern Standard time.
Please note that Wordpress is telling me (incorrectly) that these are the last 4 comments made on my site (It's not...I get tons of comments. The whole point of my site's comment threads is to allow discussion on the daily news stories I post)
Here is a screen shot of the actual I-80 tolling story thread.
Note that the thread correctly states the comments are NOT RECENT, Made 4 HOURS AGO! Note there have been plenty of comments made since!
The actual "recent comments" aren't "seen" by Wordpress for 4 hours, by which time they are rather old!
For example, here is screen shot of my comment count for that I-80 tolling thread AFTER I made a 4th comment.
Back under my dashboard's recent comments section that 4th comment is not showing up. I would wager it will not show up under recent comments for 4 hours.
NOTE: I am using "Wordpress Standard Comment Links".
"IntenseDebate Enhanced Comment Links" always displays the correct comment count number but only says "Comments" in Internet Explorer, so I would prefer not to use it. In addition, it takes forever to load (would rather not use it)
"Wordpress Standard Comment Links" quickly loads on my index page. If you can simply fix this 4 Hour Delay issue, all of us having problems with the
"IntenseDebate Enhanced Comment Links" can simply use "Wordpress Standard Comment Links".
PLEASE FIX! THANKS!
NOTE: Upon further inspection it looks like this is definately a timestamp issue.
These comments (made this morning) are said to have been made this afternoon.
-Chris
PS Forgot to mention, the "Recent Comments" section in my dashboard does not show ID avatars, etc. Is this how it is supposed to look?
Was not sure if the ID plugin was supposed to change or alter this in some manner.
Should also mention that recently my Comment Management Interface sometimes loads the Wordpres default, but at other times loads the ID version. I have tried resetting the plugin but all of these issues remain.
I am running Wordpress 2.7.1.
Perhaps 2.7.1 changed something internally that is causing problems with the ID plugin? I know there was some sort of change involving time zones in 2.7.1.

Guys, I'm noticing what appears to be a 4 hour delay of some sort before the comments under a post are taken into account numerically in the comment count.
Anyone else notice a 4 hour delay? ID folks, I have been writing/emailing you about the comment count issue and looks like I finally figured out that this is causing all the problems.
Will be submitting a separate ticket on this with screen shots. -
A comment on the problem "Comment Counts *poof* disappeared" in IntenseDebate:
Arghh. With all due respect, this is simply not a workable solution for those of us who tailor our sites around offering a multitude of posts on the index page. Can't you do something with the next version of the wordpress plugin to solve this? – GrassrootsPA, on February 20, 2009 18:34 -

Guys, anything being done to fix this?
This is really getting frustrating. In the past couple days my comment counts have stopped displaying properly.
I don't like how slow "IntenseDebate Enhanced Comment Links" loads but "Wordpress Standard Comment Links" doesn't display comment count properly.
Please fix this! -

Hey Michael, here is an example of a comment from a regular site commenter that just got held in moderation (no clue why):
http://grassrootspa.com/?p=22117#comm...
Who asked you to pay? Not me. I believe in individual liberty and the free enterprise system. The problem of which you speak is a problem of the collective and socialism. The government should not be involved and I agree that the insurers should be able to set their rates according to risk.
I also agree with Dolley that seat belts may save lives, but not necessarily money.
If seat belts are such wonderful things, why do we not have them in school buses?
Do you have a link fof your assertion about 'alcohol / seat belts' accidents and injuries? -

A comment on the problem "Comment link text always displayed as "Comments" only" in IntenseDebate:
Cartman, I have the same exact problem. Until this is fixed, simply use the "Wordpress Standard Comment Links" selection.
The downside is not all the comments are being included in the comment numbers. – GrassrootsPA, on February 18, 2009 00:30
