In fact it was a running joke when I worked in a hospital when a set of notes went missing "the aliens had taken them".
Let's see, for beings capable of travelling lightyears, it seems rather stupid to only be able to get a grasp of human physiology by anal probes? Geez, even we have more effective methods, like MRI's and CAT scans.
The way I see it, it's somekind of freudian slip from the people that make up those stories.
Have you ever considered that the purpose of alien anal probes might be.... Entertainment?
Aliens be trollin' us.
