I run a wordpress blog and used to get a ton of comment spam and referral spam, but now I use a plugin called "Bad Behavior", which identifies most spam bots and prevents them from accessing your site - so it stops comment spam, referral spam, trackback spam, the lot. It was made for WordPress <a href="http://www.ioerror.us/software/bad-behavior/installing-and-using-bad-behavior/" rel="nofollow">but it can probably be installed here too</a>, as lots of other systems such as Drupal and Geeklog have had it ported over. I highly recommend it. The only blog software I know that uses the file called xmlrpc.php is Wordpress.
