I don't think seeing who looked at your profile is a hard feature to build. Odnoklassniki (russian social website) has it.

It's obviously a conscious business decision.

LinkedIn, any number of dating sites, and I believe MySpace all have (had) it.

When a site is focused on "social", like MySpace or Facebook, it comes across as invasive. When a site is focused on personal "marketing", like LinkedIn or dating networks, it can more be useful feedback on your reach.

EDIT: I hate the word "creepy"
