This is completely normal behaviour and is not normally anything
to be concerned about.  If you really want to disable this, place
the following in the options section of your named.conf.

    options {
    	...
	statistics-interval 0;
    	...
    };

Here is the section about statistics-interval from the
documentation.

    Nameserver statistics will be logged every statistics-interval
    minutes. The default is 60. If set to 0, no statistics will be logged.

Here is an example of the same output fro a slightly more active
nameserver.
