Can you explain what happens on the site, with more details? First impression is that you're using my compute power (browser) to find the next bitcoin.
There's no mining happening in the browser. My inspiration was CSI's "visual aids", where a computer will look like it's grinding through a database but not actually be doing any work.

So the red "random" hashes are exactly that: random numbers. The site just listens out for broadcasts on the Bitcoin network, and displays them when they show up.
