Abstract
A method for identifying software robot activity in a communication network, the method comprising: receiving ad delivery requests from multiple clients identified by a unique identifier; selecting a subset of clients from the multiple clients, based on a result of a mathematical operation applied to a character string in each of the unique identifiers; delivering ads only to the subset of clients, wherein each of the ads comprises a landing page URL (uniform resource locator); determining that landing page redirection requests which are received from clients not belonging to the subset are made by one or more software robots.
