Not necessarily, unless you actually have some way of proving that
people are really looking for the site (like a form they can fill out
or a link they can hit). Don't forget that spiders and robots creep
all over the web as they index, registering hits as they go. No
matter what the domain, there will almost always be some hit activity
due to this.
