Strange, it says in their own TrackBack RFC that the GET method is 
deprecrated

Note: in older versions of the TrackBack specification, pings are sent 
using HTTP GET requests. This behavior is deprecrated; support for GET 
requests will be removed from the Movable Type implementation in January 
of 2003.

  ----

In future revisions of the specification--once the grace period for 
switching to GET from POST has passed--this may be simplified such that 
sending a GET request to the TrackBack Ping URL will return the list of 
pings.

Anyway, good thing you fixed it then :)
We might aswell support both

Should we make sure the request has a referrer? So that people won't 
abuse the querystring method? Does MT send a referrer?
