My ISP lets me track visit stats on my home page to some extent.

I am finding the level of interest from mainland China relative to that of other nations disturbingly high.

I expect it's bots. I had the problem of spam bots, mainly Chinese, filling up the comments on my photo gallery until I turned on 'must register to post', then they all disappeared. I still get hits, but no posts.

I finally got an email from my ISP saying that I was eating a TERABYTE of space on my hosting! They suspended my account, and finally said this specific database is the problem. I got in to my MySQL Control Panel, found the offending table, truncated it since it was nothing but spam, changed the register to post option, and no problems since. But you're not having a space problem, so you don't have to do that.
