Web search blind test

Practically everybody is using Google to search. But, is Google giving you the best search results? Here is a page where you can blind test Google, Bing and Yahoo! against each other. Pick the column that you think gives you the best results for a query and find out which search engine was it. Interesting to see that Yahoo! is winning so far: Google: 23%, Bing: 19%, Yahoo: 57% | 58,985 votes

I knew something was up - cause when I saw this two or three hours ago, Google was in the lead by far, with Bing in second, and just over half those votes - so somebody at Yahoo has created a script to game the system.
