XF 2.1 Views

It might seem a silly question but is the 'View' count unique views ie one view count per member/guest regardless of how many times they visit the thread, or once count each time they view the thread?

It's not unique visits as that data is not tracked, therefore multiple visits by the same visitor will increase the count each time.

Thanks for the clarification

Are robot hits counted as views?

I know guests include robots as I've tracked their ip address back to a robot like name, but don't know if you must be a member for the view count to be incremented. Bet not.
