I am looking for a tool that will give me a list of existing backlinks. I am sure SB can do this, but what I am asking is if the links in the list be only of links that are already indexed, or is it possible to get a list of unindexed links?
Scrapebox can do this, but the long and short of it is this. In order to get a list of your backlinks you would have to scrape them, you can only scrape stuff thats in a search engines index, aka indexed links. So you can scrape non indexed pages from a search engine. So its not about the tool, scrapebox doesn't create/provide data, it only pulls data from the engines.
So no, it can't scrape non indexed links from the engines, as thats an oxy moron in and of its self. If you want a "non indexed" list, you would want to use a 3rd part service like seo moz or majestic. They are paid services where they have their own bots that crawl the web. Although technically if they have the list, its "indexed" by them, whether or not google has it indexed is of course the real point.
Hopefully that answered your question and didn't spin you in circles.
