They measure, how much pages are viewed. Why is it less reliable than unique users to determine on which system the browser-usage is more popular?
Is it better if there are more unique users who browse only a few pages or is it better if less unique users browse more pages?

Why do you base your stats on page views rather than unique visitors?
We measure internet usage trends. To accurately measure usage, we have to base our stats on page views (and not unique visitors). Let's look at an example:
Person X uses two browsers. On a particular day, they load one page in Browser A. They load 500 pages in Browser B.
If we based our stats on unique visitors then usage of Browser A and B would both be recorded as 50%. This is obviously incorrect. This does not fairly represent the usage of the browsers given that Browser B was used 500 times more than browser A.
