Anonymous are just guest users that haven't registered. They could be real people or bots that are indexing the site to support their search engine. Just means that they aren't logged into the site. JB JBDad is correct. It's a search engine bot crawling the site, something that is done on nearly all websites. In this case it's our own internal Google Search Engine.
