Actually it doesn't work like that.
You can't go by the reads or views.
The people that may have read your thread might not be members so they cannot reply to your post.
The count will show them as read, but again, they can't reply.

Also, it might be a member reading the post but they might not be signed in or have the time to sign in.
If they are not signed in, then they also cannot reply to the thread.

Also, this is a world wide site with many different time zones.
It might be late somewhere where your post was read but too late for them to reply.
Same as for some being too early before their Coffee.

Lots of different reasons.
Try looking at the big picture.

Good Luck
