Technorati Inbound Link Counts

I noticed recently that I received a few new inbound link that were showing up in my list of items that link to Somewhat Frank but did not increment the inbound link counter that also appears in my account profile.

So I contacted Niall Kennedy to ask him how often Technorati determines an inbound link count. He let me know that:

"Technorati updates inbound links about once a week since it is rather difficult to do real-time with 23 million blogs to keep track of and the number of blogs growing every day."

I am glad I asks. It appears to me that there is probably some sort of cronjob or something that runs and determines inbound links every 5 to 7 days then recalculates blog rank.
