Hmmm, this is probably offtopic, but I can't seem to find anything online
which explains this and I've never seen it before.

Maybe someone else here has seen this in their logs or has any idea what
would do this?

Its obviously trying to gather some sort of information, could it be a
prelude to some sort of DoS or exploit thats not publically known yet?
