My new installation, roughly 20 days old at this point, has me dumbfounded with over 16,000 on the hit counter although I have only 83 products. I'd love to know what automated software packed this behavior:

08/09/2014 2 - 6
08/08/2014 527 - 2065
08/07/2014 897 - 3879
08/06/2014 711 - 3559
08/05/2014 292 - 978
08/04/2014 8 - 8
08/03/2014 2953 - 2968
08/02/2014 4 - 4
08/01/2014 4 - 4
07/31/2014 432 - 1657

Tracking began 07/20 and I just got Google on the case 08/09 (yesterday). SiteMeter anyone? Or another second opinion metric that can account for the big numbers? To be clear, I do understand the unique/views difference in these numbers - that makes things more interesting too because the "best viewed products" is topped with a test item with FOUR images, all lovely, of four gold coins which I imagine humans might pursue as would image search engines, but the view count is only 102 - nowhere near able with the other 82 Products to account for 16-thousand hits. How often does that Best Viewed Product hit counter restart?
