Is it just me or is Yahoo site explorer giving some weird results lately.
Specifically relating to backlink counts.

Take a loot at the following site

Code:
https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/search;_ylt=A0oG7zUoaTRO9DcAXhzal8kF?p=gerrycharlottephelps.com&bwmf=s&bwmo=d&bwm=i

The site Im checking is gerrycharlottephelps.com
So if I take a look at the inlinks - it lists them as 16,909

As soon as I click back on the Pages button, the inlinks drops to 1!!!

Does that happen to anybody else?

There are a number of similar sites like this.

Also, If I go directly to siteexplorer and type in the Url - the inlinks is 1?

Why the huge difference if going via the direct link?
 
What do you expect when the domain expired in 2010, was available and just purchased in August 2011 but the buyer still has it parked?

Look at those old links they're 2010 and older. You're looking at links from the old site before the domain expired. There aren't any links now because there isn't a current site running.
 
Yahoo site explorer usually gives many accurate results so you can't just say that it has gone berserk just becuase it did not work well for your site. There might be some issues with your site, so probably fix those and check up again.
