Anytime I hear the terminology "hits" I'm skeptical. By 1998 most people knowledgable about website traffic realized "hits" were a misleading and useless statistic. A hit is a request for a file. A web page can consist of many files - one for the main file, one for each image, and other types of files like JavaScript code, CSS files, etc. Since a web page could consist of a single file or dozens of files, viewing a web page could equate to a single hit or dozens of hits, making it meaningless. To complicate matters, some people incorrectly refer to page views or visits as hits.
In the case of this registry, I suspect "hits" really are "hits". There's a slight chance that the 11 million refers to page views, but that's doubtful based on the population of the state and other reliable statistics I have for other states' registry sites.
