Google rank 5

Of course you could always get dirty and get a program to spam the competiters links to other sites to get them google slapped.

Although this seems really temptng, I won't do it because I know how hard the person worked on getting his domain to the top. I will just try getting more backlinks. I just noticed that I have no meta tags/description (I heard Google doesn't really care about those but Yahoo/MSN does) so I'll try adding this and seeing if it makes a difference.

Work on getting more backlinks. The age of backlinks also make a huge difference in ranking btw.

And yeah, you can have a high PR with shit ranking in the serps.

Several points here:
- age of your domain has an impact (the older, the better)
- never trust Yahoo unless you make a 1 month stat (it changes a lot from one week to the other)
- your BLs should have a high PR to make your site trusted by G
- edu or gov sites will help you trust your site in G's eyes
- don't forget to link your internal pages inside your content
That should put you higher in the rankings
