Sum of hit counts in a namespace?

I am looking to gather some statistics on the hit counts of pages of a
wiki. There is a "main page": http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx that
has a hit counter, but often users to directly to a sub page (e.g.
http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx/GeometricObjects/Sphere) so their
hit is not recorded on the "main page" hit counter, but rather on the sub
page's counter. To get an idea of the total number of hits, is there some
way to sum all of the hit counters occurring on pages "beneath"
VTK/Examples/Cxx ?

Thanks,

David

I don't know of any existing magic word for view counts on a page-by-page
basis, but you could create one, or just query the database for the
specific number you want:

SELECT SUM(page_counter) FROM page WHERE page_title LIKE "VTK/Examples/Cxx%"
