How much are redirected links that look like this worth?

Hi, All!

If another site (example.com) links to you, and upon mouseover of the link, you see it's supposed to go to something like:

http://example.com/index.php?option=com_mtree&task=visit&link_id=123&Itemid=456

and then when clicked on you get to your actual site, is that considered a real link? How much of a link?

Thanks!

It should be the same, I believe this was to avoid giving you a link, but i have noticed lately that many links like this are being picked up in WMT.

If you find it in WMT you can say its the same value.
