Anyone ever see this kind of Google everflux before?

Currently, on a certain single word search term, one of my sites home page in position 6 on google.com. However, I just checked using google.fr instead of google.com, and on that search term my site is #2. I just checked using one of those Google Dance tools, and according to that my site is in position #2. I've saw this happen briefly once earlier this month.

And YES, I did on google.fr choose the option to search the entire web, and not just pages in France or French language pages. This sort of thing shouldn't be possible with everflux. With everflux [webmasterworld.com] a new page on the Internet could suddenly enter the index and push my page down the list. However, all the pages listed on google.com are pages that have been around a long time on established sites. The first 10 pages listed are still the same, just I've moved from #6 to #2, pushing the pages above mine down one notch. Weird.

Yes, I've had this happen before - one month, my site kept bouncing back and forth between two completely different positions for a particular search term and mine was the only site moving. Anyway, at the next update, the site did actually stabilise at the higher position, so possibly a good omen for you!

could possibly be a glitch with one of the google servers displaying corrupted data... ever so often your search might hit that box... unlikely but possible...

The google servers often show different results, especially now with the fresh crawl.

I often see different results from google.com, depending on the fixed ip I search from. This probably means that I accessed google from a different name server and was sent to a different google data centre, or even that the same name server updated between my searches and pointed me to a different data centre. I read somewhere that the name servers update the google ip every 5 minutes (as opposed to the 4 days we mortals are used to). Theoretically it could send you to a different data centre each 5 minutes (there are quite a few data centres I believe).
