Strange incoming links appearing on site statistics




I'm getting weird traffic from Japan, from a site called ime.nu
Why weird? because I'm not able to identify the link and also when going to their homepage link it just shows an Apache Test Page, while I'm seeing it is a pretty big site in analysis sites (Alexa Ranked 121 in JP)

Can someone help me understand the mystery?

If you are analysing your traffic from your HTTP referer log then this is probably referer spam. The referer can be easily faked. Try matching up the IP addresses of the request and the domain you think it came from. I would guess that the traffic might even have originated from a completely different server, but one that is attempting to promote the site that is appearing in your logs.
