Backward links command on MSN Search?

linkdomain

I just saw in my logs the following:

This visitor first arrived from search.msn.com linkdomain:www.domain.com -site:www.domain.com

I recognise that as an Inktomi back links command, but is MSN now the only place to do an Ink backward links search?

You can perform this command in Ink's Pure Search and in Hotbot. It's interesting to note that I just tried it on a couple of domains and the results are different between Pure Ink and Hotbot. My guess is that Hotbot has an older version of the db.
