My site has a web crawler that gathers information about each site and displays it on a profile page. It's 100% autonomous. The complainant is saying that his site is closed and he wants his profile page removed. I can delete it but the data will just appear again because most of the information gathered is based on external references (eg anchor text, referers) from other sites... the crawler will continue to find that.

I doubt there's been any legal process since the complainant appears to be in Switzerland.

Since Moniker says they're not mediating I presume they pass on every abuse complaint - regardless of the content - with the same threat of revealing contact info.
