You will find those usernames whenever you scan wordpress.com with wpscan.

Wow you are right about that.

just did it on another blog.wordpress.com. How come? On Skype's blog I can access /author/7 or /author/ian but I can't do it on another blog, I get "Oops".

I think they are trying ?author=1, ?author=2, etc
