It could be any number of ways, but if it's a targeted attack they may
have just pulled the info from WHOIS (I'm assuming your account name
is "rtfraily" from your web server and then did an ARIN lookup (or
possibly just scanned other IP's around the same range as your web
server).

The server also might have an account enumeration vulnerability, it
really could be many things.
