If your rabbit is female, this probably means she's pregnant.
She could also be going through a false pregnancy, which is something female rabbits do because of their sex hormones, even when they haven't been near a male rabbit. False pregnancies are stressful for rabbits, and stress leads to a low quality of life and even illness, so it's a good idea to spay your rabbit so that it won't go through false pregnancies anymore. There are many good reasons to spay/neuter rabbits.
The rabbit could also be under stress, or extremely bored, or ill, or the rabbit could have parasites or another skin problem.
