Stumbleupon acting strange, or is this a normal thing?

Hi there. I´m using Stumbleupon a lot to drive traffic to my site, which is about seven months old. I haven´t used Stumbleupon for any of my previos sites before. But for this site it really rocks, and sends me about 70% of the total traffic so far.

This is the hourly stats, caused by some truly amazing snowmobile video.



I thought this pattern was kind of normal for popular content. But suddenly, a longboarding video seemed to get some popularity.



This time, the traffic pattern is totally different. For me, the first pattern makes sense, if the content is great. But the last pattern is looking kind of strange. Suddenly some quite heavy traffic appear out of nothing, and then disappears again.

Anybody knows why the traffic is distributed strange lately? Should it be like this, or could it be a bug in the stumbling system?

Thanks in advance for any answer.

      You're probably getting a few votes/stumbles when you see a burst of activity. On a lot of social bookmarking platforms, it doesn't take that many before you see a surge of traffic.
