    I have made some direct change to php code for Excluding Post Author when counting view (“Count Views From” option is set to “Everyone”).

    In wp-postviews.php before line 119 added:
    global $current_user;

    In next line in “if” condition added:
    $post->post_author != $current_user->ID &&

    Edited lines together:

    global $current_user;
if( $post->post_author != $current_user->ID && $should_count && ( ( isset( $views_options['use_ajax'] ) && intval( $views_options['use_ajax'] ) === 0 ) || ( !defined( 'WP_CACHE' ) || !WP_CACHE ) ) ) {

    @lester Chan, please, confirm.
    Looks very simple and easy to add such option in next update.
