Interesting post though I feel the author is somewhat missing the forest for the trees; the issue isn't about "real-time" the issue is that many people conducting A/B tests don't understand what the statistics are telling them nor do they understand when an adequate "sample" has been pulled.

Real-time data isn't needed for A/B testing but this falls into the PEBKAC category.
