Graphite & statsd generating many nodes

I just installed Graphite & statsd to get some statistics for my web-application. It already tracks the data, but it generates way too many nodes inside the Graphite webapp's tree. See attached image: a busy cat http://mmeg-de.gefaellt-mir.me/media/hm.PNG

I already googled but I couldn't find any explanation for this. I only want to track how many times my index page was accessed. I do this in Python with the following command:

statsd.incr('mmeg.de.aufrufe.index')

Does anybody have an explanation for this? Why are there so many (different) graphs? I thought there would be just one graph showing me how many times my index page was accessed over time.?
