It has no incoming links so it's not like a site may have accidentally linked to it even though nothing's on it (which would be a poor source of traffic anyways as they could fix that at any time). The only absolute possibility I can think of is if there's an extremely remote extension that asdating is not only taken in but the domain hosts a very popular website and people are typing in the .com, but the only ext I've seen that's taken is .in (no Alexa) and .net and .org on 9/24/07, obviously not making them the source of traffic.
Also, as someone on another forum has pointed out with no response from this owner, DomainSponsor has referrer data that can be provided. Granted, he's letting someone test it and ultimately we'll either find out whether it's real traffic or not (or they'll buy for $15k and we'll be left with assumptions), but he could have provided that referrer data.
Anyways, he has done a lot of business on the other forum I've seen this on, so I hope for his sake nothing fishy is going on.

You're right in your info. I wish I could help you out more, I'm being honest. As for Domain Sponsor referrer stats, where can I get such stats? All I know of are the stats posted in the screenshot above.
Nothing fishy is going on, which is why I'm letting the high offer test it. If he finds something wrong with it, he'll be helping me out as well, as I can advertise the domain with the info he's given me. Reputation means more to be than money, no matter what forum (or anywhere) it might be. I'm not out to tell someone the wrong info, I simply do not know.
