Need to know custom code to display random and most viewed posts in wordpress posts and pages
A standard WordPress install doesn’t keep track of visits to pages/posts. So without a plugin there’s no way to know which posts/pages are visited most often. As to finding random posts that’s as simple as: $args = array( ‘post_type’ => array( ‘post’, ‘page’, ‘my-custom-post-type’ ) ‘orderby’ => ‘rand’, ); $query = new WP_Query ($args);

Get total views of all posts by author
Gathering page view statistics is inherently write operation, which is inherently heavy on resources. There are no appropriate mechanisms in WP for high volume writes at low resource consumption. Your best bet is using external analytics system/service and retrieving page view data from it.
How to track clicks

Add estimated value for a post according to the number of words
