From the Akismet website:
We can’t stand spam.
Who can? You have better things to do with your life than deal with the underbelly of the internet. Automattic Kismet (Akismet for short) is a collaborative effort to make comment and trackback spam a non-issue and restore innocence to blogging, so you never have to worry about spam again.
From the Akismet stats page:
259,612,545 spams caught so far
1,719,297 so far today
92% of all comments are spam
For me, Akismet has caught 664 spam comments since I installed it.
Thank you, Akismet!
Getting blasted by comment spam

Thankfully, wordpress stops it all. Hey spammers, pay attention! Your posts aren’t going through!
