Which -matrix- are we talking about, Dmitriy? -xttrans- only leaves
-scalar-s behind, as far as I can see:
***********
webuse nlswork, clear
xtset id year
xttrans msp
ret li
xttab msp
mat l r(results)
***********
Maybe you want the returned -matrix- following -xttab-? Which results in
there are you unhappy about?

Subject: st: xttrans accuracy
Dear Statalisters,
I am trying to calculate limiting distribution based on the matrix
produced by -xttans- . the issue is that -xttrans- produces (or sat
least shows) rounded results (such that often probability adds up to
.9999 and not 1) which complicates solving the system of equations. I
feel uncomfortable adding/subtracting  arbitrary .01's here and there
to make things work, Is there a way to produce more accurate estimate
via -xttrans- or otherwise?
