Strange thing with GoogleRankings

Well I was trying to find out what position do we occupy for free backup utility and for the domain backup4all.com the results was position 72 and the url was ecorpscanada.ca/?Second=backup%20utility&Top=Utility .
It's very strange, I tried several times and the same result appears, is that an error or they have been somehow "bugged"?

If you want to test this go to googlerankings.com and place the phrase free backup utility and the domain backup4all.com and you'll see that the result returned it's from another domain.

Yep, it seems to happen as you say.

I notice that the search result link does not contain backup4all.com, but it is in the description snippets below.

I am guessing that GoogleRankings is simply retrieving the page from Google, doing a search for backup4all.com, and finding it at position 72 - but in the description, not the link.
