I will get that to you. It does turn out we were being hit by UA and ID IPs at the same time the SE's crawled. I am guessing the bot hits were timed. They've been doing it off and on since late July.
ID - 202.67.41.51 ++ others
UA - 91.200.12.71 ++ others
Toss in HK, VN, CN and KR from time to time. We've had to add more than 70 block rules on the cloud service and add more each day.
We ramped up security on the wp log ins. Now they are shut off after 2-3 attempts.
