those shouldn't be related to Japan, but are certainly related to the earthquake in Haiti.
Earthquakes, though they do release stress in certain areas along faults, they do transfer stress to other areas along faults and to other faults, thus resulting in increase likelihood of earthquakes in these areas.  This happened with the recent NZ earthquake.  It occurred because of a stress buildup due to the earlier large earthquake there.
In addition to the recent aftershocks that Japan is facing, there is probably increased stress buildup in areas along that same fault that could result in later earthquakes.
