    Hrm... interesting find.

    Here comes the question - what about those of us using the Keyword Tool regularly (I have a cronjob that checks daily)? When they say Google queries, are they referring to the API?

    I think it's those who do automated queries to google.com, not the API. The API is fine.

    People like webposition.com I believe did thousands (hundreds of thousands?) of queries a day.

    so this could also be the reason why my favorite site where i use to check my ranking returned an NF result for google.
