I will answer for the son of Elendil, if I may.
Yes, the whole thing is 'pointless', in that it has no point beyond itself. It is also, however, rather fun, both to know how many keys you have struck (I for one found the answer surprisingly high) and to engage in friendly competition.
As regards the possibility of cheating, how exactly do you mean? As there is no purpose in 'winning' other than knowing that you have hit more keys than any other, I would be surprised if many people were attracted to the possibility of cheating. The two main ways of cheating would be either to try and hit the keys without typing anything in order to boost your score, or to fool either the server or the client with false information. The former would be tiresome, and the latter I at least have not the skill to do. Also, I believe that the moderators of the project are on the look-out for any who are cheating.
If you have further questions, my dear burg-hobbit, do not hesitate to ask.
The Laurenendôrian.
