I get that uncomfortable feeling when I see that a post has 12 replies but 350 views from anonymous viewers (especially a post in the Inn that offers no real information or help to a newbie with MS)

this one is at 8 replies and 196 views! lol
Many "views" are from automated robots that work for search engines, and scan repeatedly various postings on forums. They add up quickly. Of course some are viewers that are human, but many are robots on the web too. Some of them come back every time there is a response, if they have internally tagged the post.
