OK, that's definitely very serious.
First thing I'd suggest is using Eric Helgeson's reCaptcha plugin for
registration:
http://gitorious.org/~erichelgeson/laconica/eric-dev2/trees/recaptcha-plugin
<http://gitorious.org/%7Eerichelgeson/laconica/eric-dev2/trees/recaptcha-plugin>
I haven't tried it or tested it but it's probably the best thing to use
right now.
Second, if you're sure there's a pattern in the user names, try this
snippet of code in config.php:

Change the $nicknamePatterns global variable to suit your needs.
Clearly we have a lot of work to do on the spamming end; at the very
least we need plugins to support context-oriented tools like Bad
Behaviour and SURBL as well as content-oriented tools like Bayesian
filters, blocklists, Akismet, Mollom, and Defensio. More captcha tools
and intelligence tests are probably worthwhile, too.
