The result from Google is not control by WordPress.com, and Google has it page rank algorithm to rank which page should come up first, base on their formula.
If Google.com do not return your blog address or your blog do not appear in Google search, no matter how you query, it may due to your blog setting. In wordpress setting tab, you can set your blog whether accessible/query keyword by Google or search engine. Or you only allow visitor, but not bot (robot). Please check your blog setting, if it set correctly, you may want to try Bing to see whether it appear.
