Peers and Seeds not showing up incorrectly in ruTorrent V3.4

[somus1735]

So here is a snapshot of what I am dealing with: http://i.imgur.com/4w4Kq.jpg
I installed rtorrent / ruTorrent a few days ago using this guide / script: http://forums.rutorrent.org/index.php?topic=608.0
Everything seems to be working pretty great so far but the issue of Peers and Seeds not showing up correctly.
What is interesting is if I am not connected to anyone at all at the time then is shows the seeders and peers as zero but if I am connected to anyone at all it shows both the seeders and peers as the same number. That is if I am connected to 38 peers and 2 seeders then it shows both the number of seeders and the number of peers as 40. But If I click on a torrent and then go to the tracker tab as you can see in the above picture then you can see the actual number of peers and seeders for that torrent.
All of the torrents are on a private tracker and none of the torrents are new.
Does anyone have any idea? I am wanting to switch to rtorrent completely but I feel like I need to understand this problem before I start to move everything over.
Thank you for your time.

This is a not "actual number of peers and seeders". This is a data from scrape. This is a *common* number of peers and seeders for this torrent. *Common*, not connected to your client.

So I've been doing all the research I could the last few days and some people are saying online that the only problem is that I need a plugin called "Show Peers Like Wtorrent" and this might fix the problem. Can anyone give me a step by step on how to installed this because I tried to install this myself last night and messed everything up and now I'll have to re-do everything because Rtorrent won't start any more.

Code:
cd [rutorrent_main_folder]/plugins
wget http://rutorrent.googlecode.com/files/show_peers_like_wtorrent-3.4.tar.gz
tar -xvvf ./show_peers_like_wtorrent-3.4.tar.gz
rm ./show_peers_like_wtorrent-3.4.tar.gz

and load ruTorrent into browser.

Novik65 you are amazing. That installed the flawlessly and seemed to do what I wanted it to do. But I have a different problem that maybe you or someone else can help me with. Once again I'm sorry for being so needy. After I installed the plugin it seem to work great for while so I started adding torrents and after awhile rutorrent seemed unresponsive so I hit F5 just for the sake of trying something and I got the following error.

Code:
No connection to rTorrent. Check if it is really running. Check $scgi_port and $scgi_host settings in config.php and scgi_port in rTorrent configuration file.
Crap, so I restart my computer and relogged into rutorrent and got:
Code:
No connection to rTorrent. Check if it is really running. Check $scgi_port and $scgi_host settings in config.php and scgi_port in rTorrent configuration file.
Error downloading files. Make sure autodl-irssi is started and configured properly (eg. password, port number): Error getting files listing: Error: Could not connect: (111) Connection refused
So I did some searching online and find someone that said to reinstall. So I reran the script and logged back into rutorrent and it seemed to be working with our error till I restarted and I got the two errors again. I found that if I open a terminal and run rtorrent from there it runs just fine and if I log into rutorrent after that it seems to be running (although all seeds and peers are listed as zero) and I still get the error:
Code:
Error downloading files. Make sure autodl-irssi is started and configured properly (eg. password, port number): Error getting files listing: Error: Could not connect: (111) Connection refused
So if there is anyone that would be so kind to try to help me I would be very greatful. I really do want to be able to understand all of this so I can really get rocken.

First part of error is rTorrent not running / connectable.
Second part of error is Irssi not running. Either running "irssi" in a screen session (screen -dmS irssi irssi) or remove the / disbale the autodl-irssi plugin from with ruTorrent

Well what's weird is when I boot my system up rtorrent is running in the back ground and is "sleeping" and it's not till I open another terminal and run rtorrent that that everything works properly. I do wonder why both things are not properly coming up on my start up. So I guess I could try adding "screen -dmS irssi irssi" to my start up, is there a command for starting rtorrent in the background that would work as well?

Also as of right now all of my torrents are "peers 0 (0) Seeds 0 (0)" and when my client connects to someone for upload it changes to "peers 1 (1) Seeds 1 (1)" or if I'm uploading to two people then it's 2 for all numbers and so on.
