 * `statscurl_id` is not in any WordPress file AFAIK.
 * Have you reverted to the twentyeleven theme to rule out a theme problem?

 * I think this might have to do with the WP Super Cache plugin if you have that
   installed. Here is what I did and it went away. FYI if you do a search on the
   error there are over 31 thousand sites affected. Anyway, the first thing I did,
   because I saw a lot of people suggesting it had to to with Akismet I deactivated
   and removed that plugin and installed Spam Free WordPress instead. That did not
   stop the error, so I am not sure that is the problem. So, then I looked at the
   WP Super Cache plugin and did the following:
 * 1. Clicked on Delete cache from the setting page.
    2. Deactivated the plugin 
   3. Re-Activated the plugin and reset the settings 4. Clicked on Delete cache 
   again for good measure and the warning went away.
 * I am not sure if this works for everyone but these were the things that helped
   me, this is the only site I am seeing the problem on, and I don’t have WP cache
   on all my sites, so cannot test if this is a solution that can be replicated.

 * Go to your themes header file and look for something along the lines of this 
   and delete it.

 * That is not in the themes header.php file – it is only generated dynamically 
   when the plugin is active. Just an FYI.

 * we found, that the culprit for this issue is/was the file
 * **jquery-1.6.3.min.js**
 * It didn’t play well with W3TC and GravityForms. Enabling the ‘non-conflict’ mode
   in GF did the trick for us.
 * Hope that helps
