blog name no longer available
-
a blog name that I checked was available yesterday and today is taken, but looks vacant. Is it possible it was registered after I checked the name by accident, or that someone saw my query and then took the name? (not to sound paranoid, but it is very strange).
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Right and what is the URL that you refer to please?
Without posting it here we cannot help. -
Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/There is no expiration date on blogs unused, reserved or otherwise. If you can make contact on your own with the owner of an unused blog via a contact form or commenting on the blog, then providing the owner is agreeable there is a means of a consenting blog owner to transfer the blog to another username account. http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account
In the case that there is no contact information Staff will not breach the privacy policy and provide you with an email address.
If you are not successful, you can register another blog with a similar name. http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/
Or you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade and it will not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is.
