Just found two cool Drupal modules. Browscap and Advanced Statistics Settings module. Between the two of them, they filter out search engine robots and your own user(s) activity from the view count on nodes, blogs, etc.
I always suspected that I didn’t really have hundreds of people reading my articles, and now I reset the view counts, and I’ll see if anybody besides Google and me read my site.
Advanced Statistics Settings doesn’t provide new reports, instead, you’ll find its settings under Reports - Access Log Settings - Advanced Settings.
