Does this version use auto-referers like the DDG faviconbot? (I've had to poke several holes for it on those grounds.)

No referrer. From all indication, this is not a bot but an app or possibly a mobile browser.

UA update: DDG-Android-3.1.1

From all indication, this is not a bot but an app or possibly a mobile browser.
I have reconsidered and now think this UA is Duck's bot for mobile sites, because it behaves that way. It's not downloading all files from a series of linked pages like a human would. It's just requesting a few single page, no supporting files.
