hi I used to use this code
HTML:
<div id="countermargin"><a href=""><img src='http://www.counter12.com/img-W7wY5CCa-40.gif' border='0' title='counter'></a><script type='text/javascript' src='http://www.counter12.com/ad.js?id=W7wY5CCa'></script></div>
and i didn't know better before but after checking my own site for malicious trackers since the home page was been blocked when using ublock origin at least 25% of the time, I notice it was because of that domain meuip.page loading a tracker or more.

I still see some trackers being blocked by ublock but at least my page is not being blocked by the extension, the malicious trackers come from spotify,xat,ondecero/atresmedia which i have iframes for their precious content. I asked each provider to limit the number of trackers by email with examples but, i haven't seen they changed anything yet.

So basically I just want a tracker like that on the code but without malicious code. the counter looks like: counter.jpg
 
If you already have a Google Analytics account and it's already tied to your website, you can look specifically for a widget/counter based around ga:sessionCounter or ga:users. There aren't many, but I've seen some wordpress plugins that can do it.

Or spend few days bashing your head on the keyboard, learn basics of PHP, then get a corresponding Client Library and attempt to write your own.
Those types of widgets went out of style at least in the late 00's, so if you don't need it for users, but want it mostly for yourself - just use Google Analytics dashboard and don't bother with embedded counter.
