How can you tell if someone is Google Searching you?

I read somewhere that there are free sites that enable you to find out if anyone is doing a Google search on you. Does anyone have any info?

It's not possible for a single person, I think.
for websites it's different, you can use a admin-tools to look up the hits and referrers.

Google can tell you, but if other people have the same name it will not help much. Simply use google's keyword tool here: https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal In the box that says "Enter one keyword or phrase per line" type in your name, then remove the check mark on the box that says "Use synonyms" You'll have to type in the security letters and then click "get keyword ideas" you'll then see a table with average search volume and it will show you how many people have searched for that name.
