I have a service running on a high port number on just a straight IPv4 and it does get a bit of bot traffic, but they are generally easy to filter out when looking at logs (well behaved ones have a domain in their User-Agent and bingbot takes my robots.txt into account. I dont think I've seen the Google crawler. Other bots can generally be worked out as anything that didn't request my manifest.json a few seconds after loading the main page)
