http://ebiquity.umbc.edu/blogger/2006/02/04/half-of-swoogles-hits-are-from-referer-log-spammers/ EBB is the ebiquity research group\\\'s blog at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC). We focus on technologies that facilitate the design, implementation and control of distributed, intelligent information systems -- mobile and pervasive computing, ad hoc networking, multiagent systems, knowledge representation and reasoning, and the semantic web. As the tides of technology ebb and flow, we hope the good ideas wash up on our beach and the bad ones drift back out to sea.

So maybe these hits are from those spammers checking to doors looking for the forum. could be. Someone suggested that it’s not referer log spamming.
