    Ok, I know that webmaster tools suck, but this is just a cherry on top...

    Looked at top search queries for my web design site and this is what came up:

    1 69% dash rendar 139
    2 15% dash rendar's ship 41
    3 15% mos eisley spaceport 80

    Ok, this is a bunch of star wars crap... I think star wars is ok, but I am not a fanatic... What the hell is this? I looked on Google under these results at the position specified and guess what? Im not there!!! Also, in no way do I have any star wars keywords on my site!!! WTF is this crap? Some sort of prank or joke between the geeky techs at google? If it is then here:

    Hey Geeky Google Techs, my schwartz is bigger then yours!!! Spaceballs is a much better movie then star wars!!! haha:)

    I don't think fake referrals would be reported in google's webmaster tools. Yes, you see them in your logs, but google is using it's own logs to populate that list.

    It would be interesting to check your logs to see if you are getting any referrals from those search terms. The other thing to consider is that the ranking of those terms is backward looking, not the current state, so possibly you have moved down the list.
