By default.  But you don't have to leave it at that.  See "help using" 
on what this does:

	plot "data" using ($0+1):1

Why on earth would you want to do that?  The count of data points is 
self-evidently as linear a scale as there can be.  You would need a 
really good reason to log-scale that, and I'd rather like to know what 
that might be.

it automatically discard the first line, 1000, so it plots

You can't, and I'm reasonably sure you don't really want to, either. 
For starters, where do you think "x = 0 as normal" would be, on a 
log-scaled x axis?  The same place as "2^0", leaving you with two points 
at the same x position?  Hardly.
