Not, however, with your own hit counter
If you get a hit counter in your page, it counts every single dingnabbed hit, even your own hits to check for comments (and to read your own work, admit it!).ANd if I were to (and I did) start a hit counter in blog #1, then, when Blog #1 had 100 hits on the counter, I opened another blog and shifted that same counter code to the next one, it would instantly register 100.

Rankings vs payment distribution
Yes, when calculating rankings, "a reader is counted only once per 24 hours... if you read a blog twice in one day, it still counts as only one hit."
This is only true when calculating rankings, since it keeps any one person from manipulating the rankings by visiting the same blog over and over again.
When calculating how a reader's payment is distributed to writers, every read is counted. This is because a reader's behavior only affects their own payment's distribution, and has no effect on anyone else.
