data("testdt_tracking")
wt <- as.wt_dt(testdt_tracking)

wt_summ <- sum_visits(wt)
# summarize by week
wt_summ <- sum_visits(wt, timeframe = "week")
# create a class variable to summarize by class
wt <- extract_domain(wt)
wt$google <- ifelse(wt$domain == "google.com", 1, 0)]
wt_summ <- sum_visits(wt, timeframe = "week", visit_class = "google")
