My guess was that that came from GeoIP lookups. The Google one returns
JSON and *is* UTF-8 encoded, however, maxmind seems to be using
ISO-8859-1 which namebench attempts to treat as UTF-8:
From my Hetzner.de box in Nürnberg (a lucky location):
>>> result = urllib.urlopen('http://j.maxmind.com/app/geoip.js').read()
>>> print repr(result)
"function geoip_country_code() { return 'DE'; }\nfunction geoip_country_name()
{ return 'Germany'; }\nfunction geoip_city() { return 'N\xfcrnberg';
}\nfunction geoip_region() { return '02'; }\nfunction geoip_region_name()
{ return 'Bayern'; }\nfunction geoip_latitude() { return '49.4478';
}\nfunction geoip_longitude() { return '11.0683'; }\nfunction
geoip_postal_code() { return ''; }\nfunction geoip_area_code() { return '';
}\nfunction geoip_metro_code() { return ''; }\n"
>>> result.decode('utf-8')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/encodings/utf_8.py", line 16, in decode

>>> print result.decode('ISO-8859-1')
function geoip_country_code() { return 'DE'; }
function geoip_country_name() { return 'Germany'; }
function geoip_city() { return 'Nürnberg'; }
function geoip_region() { return '02'; }
function geoip_region_name() { return 'Bayern'; }
function geoip_latitude() { return '49.4478'; }
function geoip_longitude() { return '11.0683'; }
function geoip_postal_code() { return ''; }
function geoip_area_code() { return ''; }
function geoip_metro_code() { return ''; }
