There is, more than one, and they don't even know it. I know this 
sounds weird, but I have this from a reliable source. Some porn sites 
are giving visitors a CAPTCHA checks (for various bogus claimed 
reasons), and the porn-site visitors enter whatever they see, just to 
get access to the naughty pictures. What the porn-site visitor doesn't 
know is that he is not looking at a CAPTCHA picture for the porn site, 
but a CAPTCHA picture for whatever site the porn webmaster wants 
'automated' access to.

So in essence. there's a milion monkeys typing away at all the CAPTCHA 
pictures. It's the main reason my own weblog doens't have it.
