Other search terms 192
Unknown search terms 401
Total search terms 622Please help …
Many thanks!

We cannot assist you with any search engine issues> http://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/
Some search engines don’t reveal search terms for privacy reasons. That’s why we don’t always know which search terms were used by visitors who arrived at your site from a search engine. When we don’t know the search terms, we show them as “Unknown search terms”.

It seems the past couple of days the bulk have gone into “unknown”…that is very unusual for my site. I generally get very few in that category and the majority I can see.
The last time this trend happened, the Happiness staff was able to see the glitch and corrected it.
Any possibility that you can flag it again, please?
Thanks!

This appears to be a change with how Google is handling keyword searches, as noted in this article:
