    I don't know where to post this, but this looked like the right place. I use AddFreeStats to check up on Exit traffic, referrer urls, etc. I currently see this (please see image below). Please, what the HELL does it mean?

    I recently rank pretty well under certain, fairly highly searched adult terms. Number 2 for a certain phrase and number 12 for another certain phrase. Please help me, what's going on?

    No referring URL usually means people typed in the website's address manually or they have referrers off in their browser. One tool you might like is google analytics, its free http://analytics.google.com

    I understand what you're saying, but according to the stats, they don't visit a single page and they visit every 5 seconds or so. I've never seen this before. And all of a sudden, I see it like 20 times in a row, then real visitors, then this again 20 times in a row again and so on. Just started today. Thanks anyway, but I don't think that's it.

    I believe I'm under some form of attack. Probably sucking down my bandwidth or overloading the server.

    Not that I know of. I found an IP address that seems to be linked to the "visitor". I've just tried to ban it. I'll see what happens. I just want to know what the hell it is.

    Austars,
    thanks for the responses. I banned the IP and it looks like it's working. Looks like it was coming from some place in Kentucky. Banned the whole ISP in that area, which was Insight Communications. Had to. Stats back to normal....for now. Anyway, thanks again. Sorry people of that Kentucky area.
