I'm having a spambot explosion of lates

In the last month i'm getting nearly 1000 spambots register a day on my site. Most don't pass human verification thankfully, But i am getting around 20 a day that get through.

I've got ReCaptha and email verification, as well as a "skill testing questioN" and yet they're getting through, then posting anywhere from 1 to 100 posts in the span of minutes with their nonsense links and gibberish.

I cannot monitor the queue enough to manually approve all users and the site isn't really big enough that it has regular new registrations.

But i need a solution for this. Being higher up in the search rankings is important for the business, But I can't have these issues with spambots.

Is there any solution?
