Funnily enough I was just having a rant about this today. On the Dragons' Den last night (a TV program where investors invest in businesses) they were going koo-koo over a site that got "50 thousand hits". Not only was I annoyed that no one questioned him on whether he meant hits or not (because so many people use hits to mean impressions/visitors) but they didn't ask him over what time period! The sites I manage get 50k visitors a day, so I'm not sure why they were getting all excited by this vague statement on the show of "50 thousand hits".

The only thing I'd add there is aka "impressions".
I'd start a revolution, if I could get up in the morning.
