It is a robot. They are used to troll the internet and gather info from web sites.

....troll the internet.... LOL! :D There is enough of that going on. How about 'patrol'?

That is how search engines know how to give you results, biodoc, but I bet you figured that out already. ;)

As others have said. Search engines use "bots" to crawl the Internet. It's how the results of your search engine (such as Google) show up when searched.
