I have a SharePoint 2010(Enterprise version) intranet site that uses Windows authentication. I am trying to implement 'Top 3 most visited pages' custom web part across a particular site. This should not count the repeated visits/hits made by a visitor.

In other words, How do I get Total number of unique hits for a page(unique in terms of visitors) ? Even if a user visits the next day, it should not count as a hit, because the user has already visited the page.

Site.GetUsageData() will give me the 'Total Hits' which includes repeated visits by the same visitor. I am looking for 'Total Unique Hits'. Any suggestions ?

Unfortunately Microsoft didn't make APIs available that would provide this data. So, without using unsupported methods (i.e. querying the database directly) you wouldn't have a way to do this.

You could try third-party analytics packages that allow you do query their data via JavaScript and display that on the page.
