[Corpora-List] problems with Google counts

[Matthew Hurst]

I did a simple search for my family blog with the name of the blog and nary a
Japanese page appeared on the first list of results. It could indicate that the
blog isn't indexed and that the behaviour of google is to back off to pages that
at least include the term. If so, I would say that that was the wrong behaviour.
