Well, even though they may not include your client session, it does include information about you (username) and other stuff, that will identify who's downloading what.
For many application servers, long URLs usually are part of the identification process, like session id and stuff. For many java appservers, you will see the JSESSIONID string in your url, more so if you don't have cookies enabled. Usually long strings are information used to follow the state of a session. For big sites like amazon, the url allows the servers to handle the big catalog and navigation.
