The statistics about visitors to this site are furnished by the server-provider Ouvaton, who gets them from a professional group. They are rather incomplete and difficult to interpret, since what is shown is often the server and not the individual computer, and since visits from one host on multiple days are often grouped together.

I've listed below only the visitors from China (as identified by the string ".cn" at the end of the address), since they are easiest to identify as probable spammers.

The dates of the visits line up perfectly with the dates of the spammings on 30 Sep and 01 Oct. But the Chinese spammer of 05 Oct is unlisted. Perhaps this was the visitor of 04 October, shown on a different date because of the time difference? Or perhaps the statistics for these visits got grouped with later visits from the same spammer.

What about the visitors after the 05 October? I blocked all new account creation, so these visits might be:
  
179.163.37.58.broad.xw.sh.dynamic.163data.com.cn    3    3    13 Oct 2007
+
*Random hits generated by the fact that the site is listed on the Chinese google
 +
*Visits from the previous spammers coming back to try again (and foiled, haha)
 +
*Visits from potential new spammers coming for a first try (and foiled, haha)

There seems no way to know what category the new visits belong to. I could always allow new accounts just to try to observe who does what...
