/var/lib/zypp/AnonymousId contains a per-installation unique identifier which is sent as the X-ZYpp-AnonymousId header (boo#431571) This header is sent to hosts other than download.opensuse.org following a 301 redirect from mirrorbrain. As mirror hosts have no use and no business for this information, it must not be sent there.
