Checked my GD whois stats, and there is one domain that gets tons of whois checks but no offers. What does that mean?

Is it a new domain?
Usually new regs and transfers get a lot of looks the first few days.

... by bots, spiders, crawlers...

However, what does "tons" mean?

Click "More" icon in the Domain manager -> Export List -> Put the name of the file -> check Whois searches (both, previous and current month) at the bottom of the list -> Choose .csv format with no compression -> Finish

In minute or two, click again on More icon -> Manage exportable lists -> Download your list -> Open it with any spreadsheet processor (OpenOffice, Excel...)

bots to spam the hell out of you for web design, logo, seo services etc (this is what i get in case of catching drops), domain renewal scams, front-runners etc

I would say don't judge the quality of the name by the amount of whois searches being done on a domain name. As stated above there are literally hundreds if not thousands of reasons you could have a bunch of whois searches. I have many names with 1k+ weekly but have yet to yield a single offer.
