Abstract(in English) The growing popularity of the World Wide Web (WWW) is driving various commercially oriented applications say advertising in the WWW. In order to decide advertisement fees, a metering scheme is used to measure the popularity of web pages. In a representative scenario, there are many clients and servers, the popularity of server is estimated by how many times it serves clients, and an audit agency collects the information on the popularity. In this paper, we adopt the structure such that the server reports the number of visits in our metering scheme. To realize secure and accurate metering scheme, the server should be able to prove that his report is accurate. Our scheme realizes efficient provability and the proof does not disturb privacy.
