If u are going to use your custom script then you can use 'nodeapi' hook on your custom module to achieve this;

function my_module_nodepi(&$node, $op, $a3 = NULL, $a4 = NULL)  { 
    switch($op) {
        case "view":
	    if ($node->type =="my_content_type") {
	       db_query()// to get the current hits
               db_query()// to update the hits
            } 
	break;
     } 
}

Hope this helps :)
