Would including the redirect hits with the endpoint hits result in a user's 
single request for content being double-counted for the page where they 
eventually land?

Here's another question about pageview statistics. On May 2 and May 3 there are 
spikes in the statistics for many users' user pages on English Wikipedia, but 
en:User:LilaTretikov has surprisingly few page hits. Does anyone have an 
explanation for how Risker is getting a lot more userpage views than the new 
executive director is on English Wikipedia? I have a hard time believing that 
more people and bots are curious about the user pages of Risker and lots of 
other Wikipedians than they are about the user page of Lila in the past few 
weeks, so I am wondering if there is some error in the pageview statistics or 
if there are a very large number of bots that are generating page views by 
linking to the user pages of editors who edit certain pages.
