Viewing Vbulletin user activity

Not this forum but another one using Vbulletin.

I'm a member of a forum which I use occasionally & would like to be able to log in & visit without the knowledge of one particular mod/admin member. I don't want to post anything, just check some pages.

I know on MSE you can see on the index page who is online. In addition to that the forum I want to go to lists all members who have logged in during the last 24 hours. Also, as with most forums, if you view a user ID it shows when they were last online.

If I visit the forum while this other member is away (for a long weekend so not back for over 48 hours) is my username likely to stand out on any 'recently online' type lists or would I remain anonymous unless he viewed my account? I know as a mod he has access to additional details but don't know to what extent user activity is/can be monitored.
