Erm, for sites like TweetGrid, TweetChat, etc, which are all
browser-based client-side driven sites, the users' browser will make
the request.  In this case the HTTP Referrer can be (and often is)
unset.  The user-agent, however, is usually set for all browsers, but
sometimes people use plugins to mask or delete that, even. Just and
FYI that not all of us have control over this.
