Hi Iben Louise,
You cannot rely on the countries/flags you see next to your visitors in Dynamicweb statistics. These are based on a local register of IP-addresses that most likely is not up to date (IP-adresses change owners frequently). I experienced something similar last year, with lot of romanians that was visiting a danish site. It turned out that the IP-range belonged to a university in Denmark.
In Dynamicweb statistics you should be able to click on a green icon next to an IP address, which will take you to an external site with details. On that site you can often see detailed current information about an IP-address. However, for more reliable statistics, I recommend that you use Google Analytics.
If you want to you can filter out the IP-adresses under settings in Dynamicweb statistics. This is described in the manual here: http://manual.net.dynamicweb.dk/Default.aspx?ID=7072 - Just be aware that the IP-address might belong to a russian person today, but danish person tomorrow ;)
If you believe that the site is being "attacked" you should probably contact Dynamicweb support and have them take a look at it. The visitors can be blocked from the server if needed.
