It's all about the law of averages, kind of like spam. Hit enough hosts with some cheap automated script and you're bound to get some sort of hit on it sooner or later. For most script kiddies this is good enough. Scan 10000 hosts and get 1 hit, sure, new toy to play with.

        Got that right... this vulnerability was released ages ago if memory
serves right. Whats funny is that I am not using a linux host and I do
not use awstats anyway... makes the attack even more pathetic.
