Hi Micru,
in general, there may be better venues to ask this kind of question, e.g. the Wiki-research-l and Gendergap mailing lists (both CCed). But for a partial answer, the paper by Marit Hinnosaar reviewed here looks at these stats (if not their long-term trend): https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Newsletter/2015/December#Does_adver...
E.g. "On a typical (median) day in September 2014, no one read 26 percent of the biographies of men versus only 16 percent of the biographies of women."

Hi,
Are there any statistics that track the evolution of page views of male/female biographies in the different Wikipedias?

Note that this is not to be confused with there necessarily being more pageviews for the most read articles about women than for the most read articles about men. It does show there's more coverage of less-interesting men than there is of less-interesting women.
