That's a request from localhost to localhost (except that Apache is being 
connected to on the IPv6 localhost address and not on the IPv4 localhost of 
127.0.0.1). Check whether you have some monitoring tool (which is the only 
thing I can think of that would query the server once a second) running on 
the server, which check whether Apache is up.
