I get practically none to the address I use only on DNS registrations.
These days there are so many spam address lists floating around that
it's not worth their effort to futz with whois.

It looks like you've been using the same contact address for a long
time.  Spammers did scrape whois addresses 15 or 20 years ago, but
that was then.
