Maybe this really won't solve any problem because then those guest might just log in if they have a username or go through and quickly fill out a registration using some "dumb" username and false information.

I'm not sure, it just seems that if you have to be logged in to view the forums then it could alleviate some of the stress on the servers.

Part of the reason for the number of logged in users vs guests, is that regular members don't log in until they actually post something. I usually view the forums without being logged in.
