Just thought of a potentially much simpler way. PHP has a built-in facility which lets you carry around variables between PHP calls. You might just be able to cram it into the $SESSION variable, which PHP stores either on the server or on the user machine with cookies.

See session basic examples

Code:
<?php
session_start();
// Use $HTTP_SESSION_VARS with PHP 4.0.6 or less
if (!isset($_SESSION['count'])) {
  $_SESSION['count'] = 0;
} else {
  $_SESSION['count']++;
}

printf("You have accessed this page %d times\n", $_SESSION['count']); ?>
