No. Every cd bought in cdjapan count towards Oricon. I have posted the answer that I emailed cdjapan on the GUILTY sales thread a long time ago:

Thank you so much for contacting CDJapan.

Yes, all sales at CDJapan counts towards the oricon charts, because we are one of the retailers they take samples from.

They only look at the quantity sold, and it does not make any difference whether the order is to be sent internationally or within Japan.

Please contact us again if you have any other question.
So again if you wanna contribute for ayu or other artists you like, you can buy cds in cdjapan.
