Define a visitor. If you can come up with a definition of "visitor" that doesn't involve an IP address, then getting a count of unique visitors might be possible. The most obvious solution is to use cookies, and assign a unique permanent cookie to any new "visitor". Then you can use that cookie as a "user" field.
