1. For all of May, there were no stats for the highest pagerank page - all my accounts only showed for April, March and February. Today there is a line for May, but it says "Data is not available at this time." I don't know if this has anything to do with the fact that half my pages say that TBPR is unavailable at this time as well, but that's annoying too.
2. My Query Stats are at least two weeks old if not older - they're still showing my 950'd pages as ranking at #1 and #2 (insult to injury!)
3. My links haven't been updated for maybe TWO months, if not more. I know this because for some clients, I track 'em in Excel.
4. I removed some URLs, but over a week later, their removal is still marked as "pending" - never took that long before.
I realize this is a free tool and I'm grateful to have it, but nowadays it's hardly worth logging in to check on things, and it doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the product.

Same for me as it seems.

If you take a closer look, it seems as if in particular a number of scraper directories have been wiped out, which is not that negative at all, but obviously a step towards more quality.
I assume there may be a connection with that new "report paid links" tool in WC (ist that really the abbreviation for webmaser central?;), which we discussed here [webmasterworld.com].

Oliver - You think they are not showing you links that they believe are paid? That would certainly be interesting, but is way more feedback than I would expect them to give. Makes it to easy for link purchasers to determine which are no longer good links...
The 20 results are definitely NOT in order of demand (i.e. most popular phrase would be number 1). I have a fair few sites that are in the top 100 for some one word super-terms but they never show up.
In fact whilst I am grateful for it because it's free I would far rather pay for a complete tool!
