Counterpoint: let's say we connect a speaker to the HTTP server, and every time there's a request, the speaker produces a click. This setup will make audible sound. If it's OK to measure this sound in Hz, then is't OK to measure the HTTP requests in Hz, because they're explicitly === sound in this case.

Not really sounds, more like infrasounds. So the unit shall be mHz (milihertz).
