An example to predict demographics for impressions includes a prediction manager to: determine that first demographic data corresponding to a first database proprietor subscriber does not match second demographic data corresponding to a media delivery device, both the first and second demographic data corresponding to an impression; obtain third demographic data corresponding to an Internet protocol address, the third demographic data obtained from a second database proprietor; and generate matched demographic data based on comparing the third demographic data to the first demographic data; and a modeler to generate a prediction model based on the matched demographic data, the prediction model to predict fourth demographic data for the impression.
