You apparently have a small site if you are able to notice these statistics. Use your server's site statistics or Google Analytics... but if you want a real analysis of who is coming to your site, look only to your sales (if the site sells something) or user registrations. By offering premium content to registered users, you develop a relationship that you can certainly track. There is so much noise in the log you are looking at now that there is no point in reasoning how anyone has linked to you. That is just the nature of the internet.
