Once the page has loaded, scroll down until you see the Forced Registration Settings area.  The default for views is 5, and result views is 3 (searches).  These can be modified to any number. 

 If you are looking to disable forced registration, simply use a very large number like 9999999.

You may also require optionally forced registration on specific user action behaviors, which are independent of search and result view counts.
