Does anyone have information on this website or who/what is truly behind it?

There's more on the "ABout us" page on the background of the group:

http://malecircumcision.org/about/ma..._about_us.html

Uses the logos of the WHO, UNAIDS, AIDS Vaccine Advisory Coalition, and Family Health International.

The major authors of HIV/circ studies and most well-known and active promoters of circumcision also seem to be part of the development of this site. See the following at the bottom of the "About us" page:

"In addition to the initiating partners listed above, scientists, program managers, and health advocates from the following institutions have provided review of materials written for the Clearinghouse on Male Circumcision for HIV Prevention: Harvard University School of Public Health (Daniel Halperin), Jhpiego (Johns Hopkins Program for International Education in Gynecology and Obstetrics) (Gray and Wawer), London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (Helen Weiss), University of Illinois at Chicago School of Public Health (Robert Bailey)
