[SAGE] Reverse DNS, the new spam?



Maybe I'm slow on this one, but has anybody noticed a trend of reverse dns
being used for spamming log files?

Specifically, I just looked at web log analysis page for the first time in
about 6 months, and found that I had received several thousand hits, all
from reverse signatures that seem to be trying to advertise to me.

I'm curious if the state of spamming is so desperate that they do such
pathetic things, or is this more of a search engine situation? I could see
trying to create hundreds of links by hoping that people allow their web
stats programs to be indexed by google or overture (or if there are any
non-google or overture search engine sites still in existance)..
