Well, presumably the person who contributed the article is guaranteed to see it, I don't think an article can exist with 0 views.

There are many articles created by bots that may never have been seen by a human.

Note that Lsjbot is only active on certain language editions; it doesn't edit English Wikipedia. There are a lot less bot-created articles on enwiki.

The article was about annual views, so not necessarily.
