K2 Item Hits

On afloat.ie/ we have been using a hit counter to display article views but unfortunately this doesn't work with the caching system we would like to implement to help speed the site up. We have implemented a new page counter using an svg image to track and increment the hits and would like to completely turn off the K2 one rather than just disabling it in the frontend. We found that this isn't possible currently so is this a setting that you would be able to implement in the backend settings?

For the record I have an incomplete solution to be implemented early 2020 with a JS based way to keep track of hits and bypass not just Joomla caching but server caching (like Varnish) as well. The new way to track hits does require an additional DB table though to make things perform better under heavy traffic.

if weve updated to 2.10.0. already. Is there a need for 2.10.1?
Or are you just "tuning" a bit?

There is any DOCS or tutorial where we can see how to implement this JS API in the front for tracking the item hints?
Thanks!
