You do know how the internet works do you? It is possible to scrape logs =
for referer URLs, but that's a guestimate at best and won't find =
referals from locations that aren't websites (such as books pointing to =
an URL for more information, or links from desktop application). Finding =
contact information for websites is non-trivial as well.
