Some sites can spoof their PR score through redirects. Here's a tool that sees their real PR. Great resource for link builders. http://www.seologs.com/pr-check/pagerank.html
Thanks - I forgot this link until now. I also use: http://www.database-search.com/sys/pre-check-en.php
How does looking at the green bar detect whether the PR is faked? A site with fake PR will have a nice load of green in the PR bar. I wouldn't trust a tool to check the PR for me. Look at the number of backlinks in google/Yahoo and check the cache to see the real picture for yourself.
Either way nice tool and thanks for sharing. I also have bookmarked this site. But I will be sure to use this as a reference. Thanks again.
