 When the ID in question refers to an attachment, the result is a 404. Why?

 Only when it's attached to a published post I believe.

 I can't really see a need for a public query var here.. nor private (as
 you set post_type = any, post_status = any for that one). Perhaps wherever
 Stats is getting the post ID from, it should be passing a permalink too..
 either that, or i'm completely mis-understanding the implementation..
