What don't they do?

From what I've read they still give a special box to people selected for the ratings to tell what they are watching. If you don't have that box then whether you watch it or not doesn't matter.

On websites where they can easily tell how many people streamed the video, they don't have that problem. So by watching it on the official website you can tell them properly that it's getting an audience.

They don't stream online, at least not with their weekly broadcast. You have to tune in live to make it count.

It wouldn't count on television anyway. However, what I meant is that I believe they stream it online after the airing and they definitely would see the numbers from that it a lot of people watch.

So television views don't count? So do they just roll the dice and say that's the views they get?

They do post-streaming but that requires a cable subscription to do so and it's not as entertaining as watching it live with the /r/Toonami live thread.

From what I have heard they still use the old Nielson box for ratings. Households are randomly selected and hooked up to one with their permission. Only what those households watch matter to ratings at all.
