Does XBMC use this UserAgent?

My site gets hundreds of hits a day with the user agent string of "Python-urllib/1.17" and I initially blocked it in my badbots script [which auto-redirects to a 403 error] but after looking around I am starting to think it is XBMC hitting the site and using that useragent. I unblocked it yesterday and sure enough a TON of hits from it again [different ip's of course]

Is this something XBMC uses for web lookups or addon downloads or whatever? And if so is there any plans on actually expanding the string to be a little more descriptive?
