> I have a wiki website ..

Lets stop here.. Wiki, first obvious answer would be "wiki spam" but i
guess you would know if your wiki would be spammed. But then again, some
scripts are not wise enough to know if you protect your pages or not,
they are just trying add their own content to your wiki. And as you have
very popular wiki engine, this is one very obvious reason.

Ok, then, going thru your site, you are publish all your statistics to
public. Bad thing also, go check "referer spam" with your choise of a
search engine. Basicly they are hitting you because that way they get
"free links" to rank'em higher in search engines and/or giving them free
publicity to lead others to their site thru yours..

Also, you have published the url for your phpmyadmin (in your
statistics), which is also very bad thing. So very 31337 moldovian
hacker or abit more 31337 hacker who have moldovian zombies could be
trying a bruteforce attack to guess your db passwords.

I think there's few good reasons for your question.
