this is now resolved, i hadn't realised (embarrassingly) that ipfw list 
will show rules if if the fw is disabled.
at some point during debugging i think i'd disabled the firewall and not 
re-enabled, and on seeing rules listed assumed it was actually on

this was web traffic, coming in from 5-6 very wide ranges, with a 
referrer of  http://bdsclickcenter.com/en/surf/view/75967
Not sure why they've become interested in one of my clients sites, but 
they have probably hit the server from several 100k ip's.
mod_rewrite has been serving them 403's for over 24 hrs, but that 
doesn't seem to bother them!

thanks to those who took the time to help.
