    I have just checked my analytics stats and see this Bizarre traffic source "other" in my traffic sources overview for yesterday.
    Yes only 2 its nothing but why? It have never appeared before?
    I have not done any unusual things yesterday.

    Usually it has to do with Google Analytics not being able to determine how those visitors got there. So it just reports those visits, but for some reason being unable to know or report where the originated from. Nothing to bother about, small errors easily happens, and Analytics is just honest about them and report what it knows, that there were two visits but have no clue from where.

    Are you using wordpress? Sometimes the plugin will generate some traffic.
