Perhaps AJAX, but Amazon would probably like to support people without JS, so maybe they log the pageview when the browser requests the product image or something.

They don't. Including a page as an image includes it in my recently viewed items. Don't know about recommendations, as Amazon.co.uk have a kindle letter running.
