It doesn't appear to be a timeline pattern. We are sitting at about 5500+ urls 
over a 12 hour period.

That was my thought as well on the re-triggering of previous scans, etc... but 
it's too odd that it just started all of the sudden. We should be able to see a 
pattern.

Unrelated, but I recall a number of complaints with Apple's Podcast system, 
which they updated and it resulted in podcasts being downloaded multiple times 
from the podcaster's site (resulting in significant uptick in data usage). It 
almost feels like that. My other concern is that these people are likely 
mobile... if they are hitting a site, over and over again, it's hitting their 
data plan each time.
