refreshing the page increases view count

Hi

I've recently added a link to DZone. My link page has view count on it, along with other counters - vote count, etc. Now I'm watching the page, and refresh it every now and then to check how popular my link is. This however results with the incrementation of view count.

Should author's views be counted into this? I'm logged in, so it should be quite easy to filter out my activity on this link.
