I'd like to write myself a simple script that uses AJAX to load the content from each page on my main navbar into a hidden div on the current page.

This is just so that I can preload as much of my important content as possible and get it cached on the user's computer (hopefully) before they've finished with the current page and want to move on.

I'm concerned that doing a request for every page on the site, every time someone visits, will really ruin the validity of my google analytics stats.

How does AJAX interact with google analytics? Does it count as a "page visit"?
