I believe the robot traffic is being counted in the views, because I have a lot of names that are getting a LOT of views and no clicks.. and these are views that were not previously shown.
Just by using common sense you can tell, for example ... i have a name "internetdatingservices.info" Here are the January stats.

I have a lot of names like this .... it's obvious by the name itself that it will not generate this much traffic without any advertising. So be wary when purchasing names based on ND traffic stats, or any traffic stats for that matter.
Hope this is helpful to some.
Best Regards,
Dave
