Fast Alert Log Format

I'm writing a program to process lines in Snort's Fast Alert Log. However, I can't decipher several of the fields.

Here's a typical log entry:

03/03-22:06:32.396957 [**] [1:300001:1] Service Hunt [**] [Classification: Misc activity] [Priority: 3] {TCP} xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:40144 -> xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:21

Can someone tell me what information can appear in the two fields containing asterisks? In my logs I find no entry in which they contain anything else.

And, can someone tell me the meaning of the number preceding the sid (3000001) and rule revision number?

Thanks!
