I have noticed this on websites recently but have not heard about it here nor from Google. People are inserting links like the following:
Buy your <aa hreef="google search string">widget</aa> here!
This link then takes you to a google search page for that term the same as the Adsense for Search does. Has anyone else noticed this and is it legit?

Not sure, but there is no way to create a dynamic search link through the Adsense interface. Maybe this is an option for Premium Publishers?

I was thinking that also so I did some more research. Unless the website I found has other sites, there is no way he could get enough traffic to warrant a premium account. Of course there is no way to find out for sure, but this site was a blog...so it still seems suspect to me.
