Marc James-
anyone can see it if they highlight it or view source...

If you use a server-side language, you can determin the IP of the visitor.
If the visitor is not you, don't PRINT the count at all. You'll increment the count, you just won't print the count to the browser.

This only works if you have a static IP.

Whatever suites you best... hiding it by matching the bgcolor may be all you need.

Just use REMOTE_ADDR to get the IP of the client, if it's your IP, show the count. This only works if you have a static IP.

Not sure if I'm following you, but I don't think you need a server-side language to do what I suggested. SiteMeter has an option to change the tracker's color in the manager and you can change it to your site's background to make it invisible. Nothing else required.

I don't know about ones visible by just you, but you can get a great invisible one to everyone at SiteMeter.com.
