NOthing on my site should interest them (as an organization, anyway).

Anyone else seen this or have ideas what's going on with it? Thanks.

Why don't you write to them and ask? My guess is it's either a government employee (maybe a student) screwing around or someone sending a fake IP. If it's the former, they'll take action to stop it.
