I have been working on getting some videos enough views to get on the most viewed daily page and I was wondering do views that come from that page count on the public video stats such as first refferal from facebook, mobile view, etc?

I ask because I can't find a video that has it listed, but maybe i'm just not looking at old enough videos. If it doesn't show does anyone know a rough estimate of how much exposure a video can generally get from being on that list?

Nope.

So would it be a safe estimate to check out one of the video the next day and add up the total from all the discoveries and subtract them from the total views and assume the difference is from being discovered on youtubes lists or are there other instance that don't appear on the stats?

Yeah you could do that. AFAIK there is no source in the insight/analytic that tells you how many is from the most viewed, there might be another name for it though.
