I'm trying to collect the number of distinct visits in my cp yesterday, then count them.
SELECT
DISTINCT `user_id` as user,
`site_id` as site,
`ts` as time
FROM
`cp_visits`
WHERE
ts >= DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)
For some reason this is pulling multiple results with the same site id....how do i only pull and count the distinct site_id cp logins?

Select
Count(Distinct user_id) As countUsers
, Count(site_id) As countVisits
, site_id As site
From cp_visits
Where ts >= DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)
Group By site_id
Overall
SELECT
COUNT(DISTINCT `site_id`) as distinct_sites
FROM `cp_visits`
WHERE ts >= DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)
Or per site
SELECT
`site_id` as site,
COUNT(DISTINCT `user_id`) as distinct_users_per_site
FROM `cp_visits`
WHERE ts >= DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)
GROUP BY `site_id`
Having the time column in the result doesn't make sense - since you are aggregating the rows, showing one particular time is irrelevant, unless it is the min or max you are after.
You need to use a group by clause.
SELECT site_id, MAX(ts) as TIME, count(*) group by site_id
