Impressed you conducted a small scientific experiment to compare results from Google, KD and WT. We'd assume that Google would be most accurate - and most often updated...my gut tells me that is accurate and it is backed up by the fact that I've met w/ the higher ups at KD several times and they are very vague about where they get their data and how old it is. Another thing I'm sure you've noticed with KD and WT is that there are some really goofy results that show high search counts - things that would NEVER have that many searches - like 25 searches for 'plumber crack good joke site' on a search for 'plumber'. ...It's obvious that there is no way that long tail got so many searches in 1 monthl. You don't find THAT kind of ridiculousness in Google in my experience. Informative article. Impressed you conducted a small scientific experiment to compare results from Google, KD and WT.
