More

The list of bot user agent strings has been compiled from one of my own YOURLS setup: user-agents looking like bots with more than 100 hits. There is no reliable way to determine if a client is a bot or not.

To check user agents on your own setup, you can try this query:

SELECT DISTINCT `user_agent` as ua, COUNT(*) as c FROM `yourls_log` GROUP BY ua ORDER BY c DESC
