Save the intelligence services time and money by reading blogs instead of putting a man on the field.

The .mil readers will include ordinary servicemen browsing on their laptops. Not likely that all of them will be from the Defense Intelligence Agency. Considering the large numbers of US soldiers and civilian staff (into the millions), it would not be surprising if their combined browsing showed up on these statistics. Jeffooi.com, after all, is well linked from various sites and sources. Any GI Joe reader care to comment on this?

One of the companies I own is a web development company located in the US. The stat of US Military is just that, anyone using a computer on any of the US Military areas, and these also include universities such as Army and the Naval schools, recruitment offices, etc. In other words it is very normal to see such things on your website stats. There are more then 1.4 million in the US Armed forces as of 2003 (http://www.census.gov/Press-Release/www/2003/cb03-ff04se.html)This figure does not include the thousands of non military (Civilian) persoanl who work on the bases as well. Many of these people in the above may use chats rooms where they have met friends in Malaysia or may have college friends, or girl/boy friends over here.

Yes agreed. Many Uni networks are hooked to the military's and this probably caused that. Malaysian in US perhaps?
I'm not a spy. Really.
