Likely someone who has a useragent changing plugin or something similar and set the value to that.

Oh... I have User Agent Switcher in Firefox (occasionally run into a site that I have to use it) but I didn't know they could be custom strings. Interesting.

Well. Looking at the times, it could also be a bot someone is using or something similar. For instance, the -A option for cURL will change the useragent to a specified string.

Actually, I think its just one page... Ive got a few WordPress plugins and apparently when you click on a page it accesses all of those.

No. I approximate it by repeatedly quoting and using post merge. :P
