Number of Profile Views?

I have a terrible memory and so find myself going back several times to check out a profile here on SW. Does anyone know whether each visit is counted as a new view or does SW know you've been before and only count new views?

It would help me to know about my own counts too.

There is a way to test this.

Go to a profile, preferably of someone who is not super active and probably not getting views every minute. Note the number of views.

Then leave the page and come back 5 seconds later, and see whether the view count has changed.

I think @ABCDEF7 is right that a certain amount of time has to pass between your successive visits before a new view registers.
