TCP, I assume?


It probably IS BitTorrent. If any of the users behind your firewall are trying to use BitTorrent, then that would cause outside people to try to hit port 6881 on your outside interface. Check for DST TCP 6881-6889 going from the inside to the outside, that would be your BT user, if that's what it is.
