Strange inbound link problem

I have a few sites and with the exception of one, they were not hit by Penguin. The one that was hit is my only Wordpress site, on which I sell my own clickbank product (traffic is down 75%). I've been doing some audits and found that there are over 1200 blogspot links to one page on my site, though I don't have a page with that name (that's 25% my total links).

Webmaster tools is saying that the target page address is, in general form, mywebsite.com/mylandingpage.html?hop=ABCDEF

ABCDEF is not the actual hopcode that WMT shows - I've changed the details here. However, the actual code does not show as an affiliate in my Clickbank analytics. I've looked at the links and they come through an intermediate site which is just a list of clickbank products (on which my hoplink is correctly shown and it's nothing like what I'm seeing as ABCDEF).

I've trawled the files on my site and can't see anything obviously out of place, can't find any redirects etc but am not an expert.

Obviously I can't do anything about the source, but am wondering why WMT is reporting this as a page. I have other regular inbound affiliate clickbank links which are fine and going to /landingpage.html.

These links are not natural, so I'm pretty sure that this is why I've been penguinned. I'm more concerned that my site has been hacked in some way. What should I check?

Thanks in advance for any help.
