So it looks like they use a combo of IP address and cookies to determine unique visits....both have their obvious flaws.
Does anyone know of a tag/UDF/CFC/code snippet that could parse http_referrer info to determine which search engine a user came from (assuming they came from one at all) and what keywords they used (sucked from the URL params from the referrer)?
I know I could write it...but finding all the variants of search engine referrers etc. would take some leg work ;-)

HitBox plants a cookie if it doesn't find one already. Run Spybot on
yourself and you'll probably find several.
