Google's weird math
Danny Taggart's Blogarama ^ | 01/06/2005 | Danny Taggart

I did a Google search for the word "blog", limited within the past 3, 6, and 12 months. The number of hits for each time period are as follows:

In the past... Hits
3 months 20,400,000
6 months 19,400,000
12 months 21,900,000


What's wrong with this picture? Well, the hit number for 6 months doesn't make any sense. How could more pages have been updated in the past 3 months than have been in the past 6 months? Is there something going on that I'm not getting?
