By default the statistics module shows "xx reads" below a node when it's enabled. I think "views" would be a better term these days.

For reference, anyone wanting to change that right now can add this code to the THEME_preprocess_node() function in template.php:

  $content['links']['statistics']['#links']['statistics_counter']['title'] = str_replace('reads', 'views', $content['links']['statistics']['#links']['statistics_counter']['title']);

I agree that 'views' is a better word here.

$content['links']['statistics']['#links']['statistics_counter']['title'] = str_replace('reads', 'views', $content['links']['statistics']['#links']['statistics_counter']['title']);

Code above didnt work for me (Drupal 7), so i used the built-in strings override function in my settings.php file to override it by adding the following:

'@count reads' => '@count views',
'1 read' => '1 view',

Slight adjustment to the code at the top that works for me on a current D7 site.

function THEME_preprocess_node(&$variables, $hook) {
	$variables['content']['links']['statistics']['#links']['statistics_counter']['title'] = str_replace('reads', 'views', $variables['content']['links']['statistics']['#links']['statistics_counter']['title']);
}
