    I am not sure. But it seems that the backlinks in Google Webmaster Tool had a big update last week.

    Yeah , same thing have happened to me.
    just until few days back i have had more than 1000 backlinks and now google webmasters tools is just showing only about 200!

    May be google have updated their system to exclude certain types of links as backlinks.

    I have also noticed a huge increased on my inbound links displaying via Google Webmaster Tools. However, it is an evidence that Google had changed the way they handling and counting links toward each website "again". It may be a results from "Caffeine" updated as well.

    Maybe you don't have any new content to be crawled?

    For me it changed from 900 to 44K backlinks in Google Webmasters Tools without doing something last weeks. So yes, maybe its a small change or update.

    Could this have anything to do with pagerank getting updated?
