Default Google IS using data collected from Analytics
If you have dug into Analytics beyond just adding the short snippet of code to your Web pages, you may know that you can use the urchinTracker() javascript function to create "virtual pages" that don't actually exist. This is handy when you are tracking multiple "steps" of a process with the same URI.

Google now sends their bots to the virtual pages that dont even exist... proof that they are actually using the data they are collecting....
