Is someone scraping my site?

Or is this normal?

I've recently had a big spike in direct traffic to my site. Someone is crawling my site and bouncing of each page immediately. All the traffic is coming from a company who's "network is architected to deliver user-requested content in a timely manner and to provide a high-quality media experience. " The company "accomplishes this, in part, by delivering content from servers that can be closer to users than a content provider's own servers".

It looks like it's a cache or proxy site. Could it be possible that my hosting company has a contract with the cache site? Or is it more likely that someone is trying to scrape my site?

Any help would be appreciated.

this recent thread [webmasterworld.com] is probably relevant.

Thanks. Limelight Networks in Tempe, Arizona (for SearchMe) is the company triggering the hits in my stats. The above thread is exactly what I needed.

Thanks again.
