You see something new every day ... Today it was referrer spam for perl.com (yes, the O'Reilly site) and for ucc.ie (which is the University College Cork, Ireland).
Obviously, these two sites wouldn't have a need for spamming. All the referrer spam came from the same IP, 69.31.86.186, and in two short bursts, 35 requests in total.
The IP address belongs to KERNELNETWORKLLC, which, as a quick Google search seems to indicate, doesn't exactly have the best reputation with regards to abuse handling. Spews.org had nothing about this particular IP, but it's certainly in a bad neighborhood. Banning it can't hurt ...
