It's not that uncommon in CS. I just started a Ph.D. program (Robotics at CMU) straight out of undergrad and a decent number of the other incoming students are in the same boat. It varies depending upon the field and the university. For example, several of the top mechanical engineering programs require a M.S. to apply for the Ph.D. program.
