Referrer spam is a menace today, but simply blacklisting the URLs or the IP addresses will bound to fail. How about a dynamic blacklist?
This is how I foresee it to work. Essentially, there is a "score table" to keep scores of the domain of each referring URL. The better behaved the URL, the higher the score. The worse, the lower.
I think #2, #3, and #4 will nail most of the referrer spam.
