I am really having fun using Adsspy.com. It’s not only great as a competitive tool, but also full of surprises.
First I figured out that a few web analysts own spammy sites content-rich websites, but that’s not really something to write about (call it web analyst integrity). It’s rather fun to bust some “Search” related folks, but I am too boring to call any wannabee SEO’s and SEM’s out (the good one’s understood already).
So there are only Google, Yahoo and MS employees left:
Not sure how, but I somehow I ended up “analyzing” Matt Cutts blog and his Google Analytics ID (US-52812) is surprisingly also the ID of:
domaintools.com
anonymouse.org
bgcatalog.net
bilderupload.eu
board.generation-fx.eu
gsm-fresh.com
j-riders.org
At this point I cannot explain it and it might be a flaw in Adsspy, but let the conspiracy begin 
Is Matt Cutts a part of the domainer world, checking what domainers are up to?
Why is his GA id on some Russian Ringtone domain (bgcatalog.net).
What’s the connection to anonymouse.org, an anonymization site (which seems to sell a few bottom links)?
Maybe one of the famous SEOs , Domainer or Affiliate Marketer have an idea?
I bet it’s something quite stupid e.g. some webmasters trying to pretend to be white head by using a Google engineers analytics id
Edit: Ok…..Matt Cutts replied in the comments. I assumed it was just coincidence and he has nothing to do with it. Probably a flaw in the Adsspy system.

I can stop the conspiracy theory before it starts.
I have no ownership or influence with any of these domains in any way. My best guess is that either adsspy.com made a mistake or more likely someone is copying the Urchin analytics ID from my blog (either as a joke or as a scraper or if a snippet of my blog somehow showed up on a page on another site).
If you look at http://adsspy.com/search.php?q=domaintools.com for example, there are three different Urchin ids listed for that domain.

Thanks for your input. Would have been strange anyways….
