Live view digest — 22 October 2026
1,758 of the 2,184 requests in the current window carry a user agent that matches no recognised search engine or AI crawler.
Recognised vs unrecognised
What that includes
- Requests whose user agent string matches no recognised search engine or AI crawler.
- On a public site this is mostly ordinary automation: libraries, monitors, scrapers, scanners that did not use a known scan path.
- It is published separately so it is never mistaken for search or AI traffic.
How to read this
- What the day-by-day strip shows. Each bar is one day of the current week, from the same log and the same rules. Comparing days is the honest way to read a young site: a single spike says little, a persistent change says a lot.
What this is not
- One site only. This is a dated record of one small site, not a benchmark, an index or a projection.
- Crawler identity is claimed, not proven. User agents can be spoofed, so unrecognised traffic stays unverified rather than being assigned to a named engine.
- A crawl is not a citation. Being fetched is a precondition for being mentioned, never evidence of it.
- Every figure is derived from this server's own access log. No third-party analytics are used, so there is no second set of numbers.
Do the same on your own site
- AI Crawler Log Analyzer — separate recognised crawlers from ordinary automation, on your own log
- Robots.txt AI Access Check — check what unrecognised agents are allowed to take
