Since version 0.4.3, the cookie-based middleware (with fake forms and the cookie-based comment moderator) has achieved 100% efficiency at former http://www.correioprogressista.com.br/, which used to have more than 200 spam comments each day. Even so, I recommend using Akismet or another spam analysis tool.

Since version 0.3.0 (first with cookie middleware) up to 8th april 2013, the cookie middleware identified 5166 spammers and blocked 1917 requests from known spammers at the same website:

 $ grep -c "BLOCK RESPONSE" spam.log
5166
 $ grep -c "SPAM REQUEST" spam.log
1917
