Comment(by mikeperry):

 I spent a little time looking at the Tor2web codepaths. I'm still not 100%
 clear where it is picking up the extra hop in normal operation. As far as
 I can tell, tor2web circuits should only be 1 hop, should not be possible
 to cannibalize, and there should be no client activity allowed other than
 tor2web's one-hop hidden service client traffic.

 fob: Did you hack your tor source code to do anything special other than
 enabling tor2web mode?
