Addition to BSDstats

[Marc G. Fournier]

The backend to bsdstats.org is load balanced behind an haproxy backend, 
with only the IP of haproxy being passed back into it ... one of the key 
issues that was brought up from day one was security and anonymity(sp?) of 
those submitting, and we've taken that *very* seriously ... other then the 
tokens that are passed back to present individual systems, we do not 
record anything (or see anything) about the reporting servers ...
