I had a few of these too. Not nearly as many though. Request counts byminute (UTC):

Same here, over 1494 requests since Jul 23 17:22:40. It ended
at Jul 24 19:41:05 for me. That's in EST timezone.
And yes, I can confirm the URL parsing was horribly done, approximately
300 of those requests (20%) resulted in 51 NOT FOUND errors, seemingly
all because of incorrectly constructed relative URLs. If this happens
again I will likely ban the IP.
Thanks for bringing this to my/our attention, I wasn't aware of until now.
Do you have some monitoring system in place? How did you find out?
Cheers,
