WTF @ new age spam

I am noticing an increasing number of ‘weird’ spam comments on one of my posts. Due to the fact that they are worded almost perfectly makes it impossible to catch with a filter like mollom. Look at this for example:
Impressing statistic from Drupal but I think this is a very rapid “market” and this statistic is even after a day old. Regards, Erik
or this one:
Drupal chart would be more interesting if we can compare it with other big blogs. With only numbers I cannot say great or not. Maybe you can amplify it.
Totally relevant looking posts, with minor grammatical mistakes, and URLs that dont scream ‘im a spam comment!’. I actually had to click on them to find them to be all outdated/parking sites etc. Is there a solution against these? I would hate to withdraw anon comments (well i dont get many anyway), yet this seems inevitable.
AJAX comment moderation for the masses! (+1 TODO for me i suppose then)
