Why does it matter if someone already viewed the article? If you are going

This should do the trick
cfquery name=qMyQueryName datasource=#MyDSN# maxrows=5
SELECT articleID, COUNT(ID) AS MyHits
FROM tbl_020articleTopRanked
WHERE DateCreated BETWEEN '#CreateODBCDateTime(Now())#' AND
'#CreateODBCDateTime(DateAdd(h, -14, Now()))#'
GROUP BY articleID
ORDER BY COUNT(ID) DESC

cfquery name=qMyQueryName datasource=#MyDSN# maxrows=5
SELECT articleID, COUNT(ID) AS MyHits
FROM tbl_020articleTopRanked
WHERE DateCreated BETWEEN

I actually think that tracking page views and having time limits on counters
is a good approach if you have the time. I run a link database that tracks
clicks on the links. If someone clicks the same link more than once within
