    Maybe someone who's a member of a yahoogroup related to your niche linked your site? You can't view direct yahoogroup link unless youre a member of that group.

    natural backlinks are a good thing. When you have content that others will link to on their own, that normally indicates you are on a good path. Enjoy the traffic. :)
