if $wgDisableCounters=true, then api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=statistics should not show "views", <statistics pages="432" articles="247" views="317460" edits="4051" images="0" users="172" activeusers="4" admins="1" jobs="0" /> as that data is invalid, and indeed, SpecialStatistics.php doesn't anymore, so you should follow its lead. The Sysop has made a decision to give up counting views, so that data is stale/invalid, and you shoud respect his decision by not reporting it.
