No it doesn't. I know the type of bot you mean, the browse bots. All the ones I found are on the security hostiles blocklist. Countries they mostly come from are USA & Japan. Some will browse every 15 mins. Some will browse only but very soon after you start a new session. Birdy's also noted these kind of bots.
Unlike LW 4 which shows each time they browse you, LW 5 simply only lists them once. I used MacOSX's network console to discover how often they'd been browsing & how long apart.

Such bots have been around for a while. I recall hosts doing that last decade. I initially thought they crashed (due to my large shares) & returned & re-browsed. I eventually woke up to who/what they are.
