Stats are normally updated on the hour. Either theres a problem on their end, or there's something wrong with your setup. Are you sure you have the username and team number exactly the same for all clients?

That's from your Main CPU client and PS3? Hmm. The issue might just resolve itself or someone might have to check to see if you returned WUs properly and such.

I'm also wondering if the PS3 only works for WU's, because right now my progress is 3500 out of 10000 on the cpu.

On the CPU client, at least, you can check progress more in-depth by looking at the log file, called FAHlog.txt. If you could copy and paste the contents (all of them) in code tags here we could help figure out if something's up with that client (please use the code tags found in the Full Editor- it makes it so that the contents don't extend dozens of pages).

A WU that is 35% complete doesn't count yet. You have to finish the WU, the result has to be uploaded, and then about an hour must pass until the credits are updated.

Your stats show the PS3 has completed 7 WUs. There's no evidence of results from a PC, so if you think you're folding on a PC, too, we need to see the FAHlog.
