'Unexpected amount of clicks coming from my website to external affiliate website

I publish affiliates links on articles on a Wordpress website.

Affiliated site noticed me an unexpected amount of clicks coming from my website.

According to him: "All the traffic comes from the same website and IP address. The address and the web agent are as follows: WordPress/5.4.10; http://xxxxx.com 91.134.248.249."

I have a mutualized hosting on OVH. The above IP relates to OVH server (I think).

But for the period concerned (30 mn in a day), I had only 6 views and 1 external click from my website to the partner website (stats getted with Jetpack and Worpress.com).

So I don't understand because traffic is identical to others days. There was not anormal activity due to bots for example.

What explication to justify theses links clicks?

Best regards.

Théo.
