I often notice dozens (sometimes even 60ish) people on the forum -- mostly guests, obviously -- but way less people in-game on average. Yes I know that many people may be chilling at work, at school, or at some place where they do not have access to FF, but I feel that such a high number of forum viewers on average could be yielding a higher player base in-game.

What gives? Is there something I'm not seeing? Just a lot of random passerby? Former players coming back for nostalgic purposes? Spam bots?

They are bots, as has been stated, but better known as Crawlers, which crawl each website and populate search engines with updated information.

Turn FF into a browser-game; problem solved.
