A usual method for forums and such is to embed an image with an src hosted on your domain, then analyzing the logs. I used to do this to mark forums as read in a browser game I played, as a player-linked ID was in the URL (sent in the referer)
Github solves this particular method by downloading the src and mapping it to camo.githubusercontent.com, so maybe OP didn’t realise that, or GitHub shows the stats somewhere.
