API issue with Activities Tracker Distance and Tracker Very Active Minutes

[alexbadut]

Hi,

We are relying on tracker-Distance and tracker-veryActiveMinutes for a mobile rewards functionality and we encounter two issues with the incoming data:
1. We've seen trackerDistance values increasing from one day to the other for some user. Is this a coincidence or is there a chance that the trackerDistance data is not reset on the Fitbit servers between consecutive days? We are using the API correctly with the 1d time interval.  

2. In a particular case we got an increase in veryActiveMinutes in a short time interval without significant differences in tracker-Distance. 

• tracker-Distance = 48.23, tracker-veryActiveMinutes = 0 and tracker-fairlyActiveMinutes = 0 at 18:07
• tracker-Distance = 51.62, tracker-veryActiveMinutes = 40 and tracker-fairlyActiveMinutes = 1 at 19:12 with a 3.16 distance in the veryActive field. Does this mean that the tracker has recorded intense phisical activity but not running?
