Internet Number Stations miss the point entirely
The point of a Numbers Station is to be able to communicate with spies working in the field, right? These spies work in places were internet is not available, so they use shortwave radio, because you can pick up a SW set pretty much anywhere round the world.
Also it's worth pointing out that Number Stations work by keeping their recipient secret (they don't care if people know who is broadcasting). Accessing a website leaves a trace back to the recipient, something which an analogue broadcast can't do.
