Pure guesswork:
The who's online list contains a list of guests and a list of members. The members are shown. However Invision 2.0 checks each guest, and if it finds a guest with User-Agent 'Googlebot' then it makrs him as a member and shows him on the member list.
So basically it's just the Googlebot spidering the boards (probably because it noticed us upgrade) and Invision treating it like a member so we can see that.
EDIT: Since this is a busy-ish forum it will visit often. If it annoys you, there is an Admin CP option to disable treating the bot as a member.

Why? It appears at the bottom of the forum index page. Not that hard to miss.
