Although communities which care deeply about edit counts, etc. may frown on that behavior. Generally if you use AWB to edit similarly to how you would a bot (fast, tedious edits), a bot flag is still advised. Also note, AWB has a checkpage option in which communities can block unauthorized use on their wikis.
