          Yes, they do



          From the PFSRD entry for the headband of vast intelligence:




          the headband grants a number of skill ranks in those skills equal to the wearer’s total Hit Dice.




          Note that they are skill ranks, not just a bonus of some sort. So, yes, they would work for a familiar, or any other effect examining the skill ranks possessed by the caster.
