Nothing right now.

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.
