Unusually High Number of Hits

In the last few weeks I've noticed an unusually high number of hits from a variety of countries to a particular page on my blog. (I typically use Sitemeter to view visits, and only occasionally read my hosting company's stat report.) Sitemeter offers a "Referring URL" but in all of these cases going to that particular page on my blog, the "Referring URL" has no data. I'm curious to know if anyone can offer some insight as to why this is happening.

Cheers.

stumbleupon will do that.  if someone recommends a page in
the
stumbleupon network, you could get several thousand unique
views to
that page in one day.  out of curiosity - which photo?

Well, it ain't stumbleupon traffic because I just gave it
the first 
thumbs up. Along similar lines, sometimes pixelpost marks
referrers as 
http://xxxxxx.xxx. I never
worked that out either.

Okay, so now I *have* started getting hits from Stumbleupon. I've gone to the Stumbleupon site to see who marked my site, but I have to say Stumbleupon is lousy for first time users. I'm no internet novice, but I've totally lost patience trying to figure out how to efficiently use that site. Can anyone enlighten me how to find who posted my site? Thanks.

Erm.. I think that would be me. When I clicked 'thumbs up'
it said that 
I was the first to submit. I find that stumbleupon drives a
lot of 
traffic to my own site.

Well thanks for the "thumbs up" Jamie After I read your message it then occurred to me that a week or two ago you had mentioned doing just that. So now I know how it got there. Could you educate me a bit about stumbleupon? It looks like you have to sign up/register, and then it loads a toolbar in your browser? Is that the case? And then what??? Any feedback is much appreciated!
