If all you want is for people to be able to visit your sims without 
having to have accounts with your grid, you can enable the Hypergrid on 
those sims, and they can do that.

If, however, you want anonymity, that's not supported yet. I guess one 
would have to discuss what kind of anonymity we're talking about. Do 
you, as a grid admin, not even want to know where visitors come from at 
all, or do you simply want to omit their names from the view of other users?
