Counters do not update automatically, this applies to threads and attachments. The reason we have it on, is updating database records locks tables, thus it will have to complete an "update" before it can "select" data.
So, by doing it every hour or less it reduces the load and locking of the database, as it does it all in one batch.
It does count every view, it cannot (at the moment) be unique views.
