True. The challenge of what you want is you want it triggered on all activity. Technically, when global.php was indicating multiple hits that was all activity since many different calls to global.php were required. The difficult thing is there will have to be conditionals that help determine when a particular hit is valid to count or needs to be disregarded.

I'm sure some of this logic must exist in vbulletin itself since thread views cannot be artificially inflated by simply hitting refresh.
