Antialiased lines of width 1 pixel do generally look a bit thicker than they 
should, when compared to non-AA lines. This is because exact pixel coverage is 
computed, and neighboring pixels are also affected a little bit. Some more 
in-depth explanations can be found here:

That said, it may be possible to play around with gamma correction values to 
make the lines less visually thick, but they would still look fuzzy. However, a 
different gamma would be necessary for dark vs. light background colors, so it 
would not be a universal solution.
