When hosting Piwik behind cloudflare the IP reporting is off. This is correct behaviour, but it would be preferred to make use of the cloudflare header that's reporting the real IP for clients.

This could be an easy fix or option:

if (isset($_SERVER["HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP"])) {
$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] = $_SERVER["HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP"];
}

I guess apache mod_cloudflare is a better fix

The solution should be already documented here: http://piwik.org/faq/how-to-install/faq_98/
