This is what my host admin said currently:
Thank you for getting back to us.

The 'HEAD / HTTP/1.0" 200 300' requests you are seeing are multi-choice requests, which require more clarification what sources was actually request. These are typically generated by bad redirects from outside sources via incorrect links.

Regarding the 'POST /wp-login.php HTTP/1.0" 200' and 'POST /xmlrpc.php HTTP/1.0" 404' logs, those are most likely due to someone trying to brute-force your WordPress website. This is an indication of an XML-RPC attack. I would highly advise you to either password protect wp-login.php or wp-admin, in order to prevent outside access to these crucial parts of your website.

Depending on how well you have secured your WordPress site it may eventually lead to the website being compromised. As I see you are using Fail2Ban for your wordpress sites, it should not be an issue.

So, it should not be an issue? have I blown this all out of proportion and worried for nothing, not to mention everybody's time here. If so, I apologize.
But I'm glad to see this forum is active and willing to help.

WBWD(4) 						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						   WBWD(4)

NAME
wbwd -- device driver for watchdog timer found on Winbond Super I/O chips SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file: device wbwd Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5): wbwd_load="YES" DESCRIPTION
The wbwd driver provides watchdog(4) support for the watchdog interrupt timer present on at least the following Winbond Super I/O chips: o 83627HF/F/HG/G Rev. G o 83627HF/F/HG/G Rev. J o 83627HF/F/HG/G Rev. UD-A o 83627DHG IC ver. 5 SYSCTL VARIABLES
The wbwd driver provides the following options as sysctl(8) variables. dev.wbwd.0.timeout_override This variable allows to program the timer to a value independent on the one provided by the watchdog(4) framework while still relying on the regular updates from e.g. watchdogd(8). This is particularly useful if your system provides multiple watchdogs and you want them to fire in a special sequence to trigger an NMI after a shorter period than the reset timeout for example. The value set must not be lower than the sleep time of watchdogd(8). A value of 0 disables this feature and the timeout value provided by watchdog(4) will be used. dev.wbwd.0.debug_verbose If set this sysctl will tell the driver to log its current state before and after the timer reset on each invocation from watchdog(9) to the kernel message buffer for debugging. dev.wbwd.0.debug This read-only value gives the state of some registers on last update. The wbwd driver also provides further sysctl options that are hidden by default. See the source code for more information. SEE ALSO
watchdog(4), device.hints(5), watchdog(8), watchdogd(8), watchdog(9) HISTORY
The wbwd driver first appeared in FreeBSD 10.0. AUTHORS
