I'm using phpBB and MSNBOT has already hit it serveral thousend times, while it is only a small forum with few sections and topics. It just seems to think that every new session or other variable is a new webpage.

You can always let them index your site later, as they decide / and or announce they are releasing a publically searchable index.
