And Lord, we are especially thankful for nuclear power, the cleanest, safest
energy source there is. Except for solar, which is just a pipe dream

It is true, Magnoody, and it is not worth to risk that some LLs won't list you. You will waste your work. Counter is a part of your page and you have no control over it. You do not know what image will be shown, or what code will be run. This is the biggest problem. The other thing is that you will lose a part of your hard earned traffic on counters. Ask your webhosting company if they run some web analytic software and if not, ask them to give you access to your logs and get such a software yourself. Most of webhosting companies will do it for you. Anyway, if you think you must have a counter on your page, then you should go with a reputable company that's been around a while.
