I prefer to measure it when stood on the bike.

As apposed to sitting?

Yep. You work the bike and forks more when stood. If you have say a slack head angle and rearward bias to weight, sitting may not make the forks sag much at all. You lower the pressure in them to achieve the right sag, and then when you stand they easily bottom out as sag a lot more.

So I'd recommend to set the fork sag when stood on the pedals in the 'attack/ready' position.
