Consider then the concept of a 'Honey Token'
http://securityfocus.com/infocus/1713




Yet, the article states that these are more of a 'insider threat'
monitoring tool.  Few if any honeytokens would probably ever be exposed to
the internet at large.


Why not?

Example:

tokens for account info in an extranet application, easily catches sql injection, brute force attacks, intellectual property theft...

Just some possibilities for this:

portals
customer accts
inactive web pages
fake confidential documents
...
