Yes, there is too a 'vote' table. It also is currently the largest table in the database and backing that up is the only part of the database backup that really impacts the site (it is why the site locks up for a few minutes every night at around 23:30 PDT -- yes, we know how to fix that, it will get fixed eventually).

And it currently only records votes. If you balloon it up to record "visits", then it would grow probably a couple of orders of magnitude. No, I certainly have no plans to make the largest table in the system a couple of orders of magnitude larger for the sake of tracking which nodes you've visited.

Feel free to write a proxy module that does this for you client side.
