Does that look like an awstats exploit attempt?

Might be someone (or some auto script)  testing for a vulnerable version.
If sucessful they would find out which user awstats is executed as.

Does anyone have a vulnerability report on this?

Yes, a couple of sources, look at the docs for sids 3463 and 3464 and
also the Bugtraq entry 12572

Should I attempt to report the source address to the appropriate 
authority I get through a whois query?

That's up to you.
