Yeah, assuming not a ridiculous amount of traffic at the time I can do a pretty reasonable correlation based on timestamp and source IP address; looks like this one is actually a post binding, but does include a referrer pointing out the culprit:

If Scott doesn't point out something simple I'm missing :) I'll probably go ahead and open an issue and maybe poke around in the code to see how hard it would be to add.
