Googling for this finds me a ton of stuff that doesn't actually do what I'm looking for.
I want a simple hit counter cgi script of some kind that will increment a counter on every page load but I want to access the counter from a different page.
In other words, I don't want to have a visible hit counter on the webpage itself. I want to have a different webpage that will show me the number.

For much less effort you can setup Google Analytics and also get a lot more information. Otherwise, you should probably take a look at one of the reporting packages like AWstats that analyze the Apache logs. No one really uses those simple counters much anymore.
