ah! i see. sorry for misunderstanding you.
perhaps on the script for the profiles page, the logic should be like:
profile for user: adam
if the browsing user is logged in: (for example the browsing user is ben)
insert into the database that ben has seen adam's profile
end if....
and your table in the database can be:
user visitor time_of_visit
adam ben 1290122141 (unix timestamp)
then you can query it on the database for each user.
SELECT * FROM profile_visits WHERE user='adam' ORDER by time_of_visit
DESC LIMIT 10
As for cleaning up... that's the bit that I can't figure out myself :(.
