Does Netvibes take Saturdays off?

I check my FeedBurner stats for King Gary every once in a while, and I have begun to notice that my stats take a big dive on weekends. This is nothing really special, because it’s common knowledge that feed circulation routinely drops on weekends. But then I notice that my stats go down on Saturdays - sometimes by 50% - and then it goes back up on Sundays.

I checked my stats, and I see that Netvibes doesn’t report its subscriber counts on Saturdays. Is this something that’s normal? I have a feeling that most people are NOT experiencing this issue.

This is how my subscribers stack up last Friday:

And this is how my subscribers look like, yesterday (on Saturday). Notice the lack of Netvibes? Or maybe, Netvibes users don’t use their browsers on Saturdays, since Netvibes is most likely set as their homepage?
