My UCJ-C and TM3 trade scripts spots them
Whatever it is spotting, there is NO indication given back to webservers that a given website has been bookmarked in an unassisted manner by a person viewing a page. Any user can hit Ctrl-D on any webpage and create a bookmark in most major web browsers, without the website being any the wiser. This isn't like cookies, where a website can set a cookie, then check later to see if the cookie got set or not. Those scripts you mention must be using a technique similar to what I have described previously above, because there is no other way to learn who has bookmarked you, when, or why.
