Hi David.

 

Those are the search engine statistics. They show you which search engine spiders have visited your site and how many times.

 

In your case, fo example, the first line tells you that Google has already visited your site 39 times.

 

It also shows you some other stuff, like WGet, which is not a search engine spider but a UNIX tool used to retrieve files from web servers.

 

Stuff for the Search Engine Optimization people to play with :)
