But, there is nothing on the site (or in the database, for that matter), that 
links a host (or set of) to any specific domain, IP or company ... netcraft 
does this, we don't ... so there is no way fo rsomeone to know *what*, or how 
many, a competitor was running ... this was as key design requirement put forth 
by oodles of security conscious admin on these lists when the project first 
started ...
