Unbelivable! Maybe because it is just one word...

Yes likely! The LAVA search suffers from the problem earlier search engines had. If you entered multiple words there it gave you all the pages that contained one of them. You had to prepended an explicit + sign to every term to indicate to the search engine that you intended this to be a logical AND. Google was one of those who found that this kind of search syntax wasn't exactly intuitive to anyone but shell script hackers and put in an algorithme that first ranks all the results that contain as many search terms as possible and then lists those that have only one or a few of them.

Haven't much tried to play with the LAVA search yet but it may still use this somewhat ancient syntax.
