Apparently AO3 has the same 'issue' as FFnet in that it's possible for someone to bookmark/favourite a story without actually registering any page hits on it (which is a slight pain from my point of view, because it means that I can't simplify my stat-checking script to only output data where the number of page views has increased, but have to do an IF...AND...AND...AND. But I did strongly suspect it as a possibility, which is why I put the triple check in to start off with.)

I've noticed that my own visits to AO3 pages never show up either on my own story statistics (which could just be clever detection of the IP address) or on anyone else's, so I'm guessing that they are using some kind of JS-based page view detection, and that whenever somebody views a page with JavaScript disabled then it doesn't register on the system. But a favourite or bookmark involves manual interaction on that user's part, so shows up as a 'ghost' visit :-p

And they like Hertha as a character in her own right! I was afraid they wouldn't like this chapter at all because it was effectively all OC backstory (and an OC with some fairly 19th-century views at that, rather than the standard modern teenager dressed up...)
