I think it's a an error
some program is about to execute a HEAD / on your address (%a, a variable)
and : you port (%p, also a variable)
I mean, probably some programming language, (don't ask me wich, i only know
and *love* C) which will put an adress in %a and a portnumber (probably 80)
in %p.

Nothing, to worry about, another kiddie whois trying another mass scan
program.
