I am confused by your question. Because of the registration procedure to enable posting, there is basically no spamming at this Web site - at least none that I have noticed. Maybe the Moderators know otherwise.
Do you instead mean to suggest there might be some (obviously tepid) Denial Of Service attacks coming from somewhere like the Philippines? Who would have the motivation to undertake these? Courgette growers?
Obviously, Alexa cannot quite read the mind of Internauts requesting pages from the AAm Web server - what it does, especially in the absence of explicit cooperation from the AAm Webmaster, is an inexact science.
Note that absent address spoofing with proxy servers and the like, the AAm Webmaster could engage a geolocation service like
Quova for a price to successfully measure the rough geographic origin of content requests.
