Hi,

This is great news. It has a lot of potential.

The "counter" property corresponds to the total number of hits since
the page was created?
A suggestion: it would be great to have this info by revision. Given a
page title + a revid, return the number of hits observed when this
revision was committed.

Even better would be to have access to the full request metadata for
each hit. I understand that this would greatly increase storage
requirements.
