[SLUG] weird web site viewer

I have a small, personal web site, served using thttpd (I said it was
small). I run it on port 81, to avoid the IIS attack du jour.

There is one machine that's made about 300 hits since 13/Apr/2006:11:47:57,
often hitting the same page dozens of times in a row, with 8-60 seconds
between hits. His hits stop coming in the evening and resume in the early
afternoon. What's the deal here? How can I cut him off, using e.g.
hosts.deny or similar (I already have ALL : ALL in there)?
