Abstract
Methods and apparatus to generate corrected online audience measurement data are disclosed. An example method includes determining a corrected audience count of streaming media for a demographic group by: calculating a deduplication factor for a demographic group using a first audience count, a second audience count, and a third audience count; estimating a fourth audience count for the demographic group, the fourth audience count indicative of a number of people who accessed the streaming media; estimating a fifth audience count for the demographic group, the fifth audience count indicative of a number of people who accessed text content; and applying the deduplication factor to a sum of the fourth audience count and the fifth audience count to determine the corrected audience count. The example method also includes generating ratings information for the streaming media based on subtracting the corrected audience count from the first audience count.
