For reference, my site gets attacked non-stop on WordPress paths as well, wp-login.php, wordpress/, wp/, etc - there is no Wordpress on my site. But someone out there is trawling sites looking for WordPress installs they can compromise.
You and every other website on the planet. It's just a fishing expedition. If you check your access logs you'll see from the same IP requests for /wp-login.php, /phpmyadmin, /some_other_widely_used_application and dozens of others. Once they have identified it when things are not up to date they can exploit it.
