It is very difficult to extract all the robots polluting my data especially around reading the RSS feed. Looking at the figures my best bet is I am getting around 3,500 true visitors to my site through both directly loading the site and RSS. At the moment close to half my data each month is being spent on identified robots some of which I may start to block if they continue to consume too much data.
