was just checking backlinks for yahoo.com and is the same across all 3 main servers, but then i did it with a space after the Link: yahoo.com and got different results

is there anything in this?

Nope, you have to type it like link:www.yahoo.com and use no space.

If you use "link: yahoo.com" you will do a search for "link +yahoo.com" from what i can see.
