One of my sites was "crawled over" by Montara, CA on July 30th, so it looks like they're still at it.

I should have said, "sorry if this is obvious". Carry on.

Sorry if this is non-obvious or you've already done it, but you can check what page or pages were popular that day. Narrow the date range to just the day before and after the spike, then click "Content" in the left-hand navigation menu. You should be able to see what all the fuss was about.

Do the same for "Traffic Sources". One of the numbers ought to be out of whack compared to a previous time segment of the same duration.

Or, if you're really keen, temporarily give darren at capulet dot com access to your Analytics account, and I can try to grock it on my own.

I know I've changed the time settings for my blog in terms of when my postings and comments are time-stamped, but I remember reading in the WordPress Stats thing specificially that you can't change the time zone for that. But perhaps I misunderstood? I'll have to go double check that.

You can change your time settings in wordpress. I think we are like -6 hrs from GMT. I finally did it as I got tired of the timing being out of whack.
