can someone confirm that these actually count as backlinks?

This method is possible at Youtube (PR 9!) as well:
Replace Blackhatworld.com with anything you like.
Maybe I can help.
If this works like I am assuming it works, then it's actually quite clever.
By getting those links indexed Google will crawl to the redirect page. On this page it finds a backlink to your site, from a .gov. It may be only a temporary page to you and I, but the robot - being unable to think outside the world of 0's and 1's, sees it as a permanent page.
Whether or not the robot is smart enough to realize that everything behind the ? in the URL is to be ignored, that is for somebody more knowledgeable than myself. However, if this actually works - it's a great idea.
