I think you probably have the fairly well known yahoo linklist penalty, which is a risk for all linklists in yahoo.

No-one knows for sure how it works, but my guess is that it's an actual 'manual' list, to which linklists and certain other types of sites are added manually. There's probably some sort of algo filter that looks for sites that have certain linklists like characteristics, and every once in a while a new batch of domains are manually added to a blacklist, which then limits the number and type of pages that are likely to show up in the yahoo serp.

I say that because 'smiling pussy' is a quite unique keyphrase, but a search for 'smiling pussy' doesn't show your domain in the first few serp pages, altho your domain looks to have 24k incoming links.

But it would be interesting to hear if anyone else has an opinion on the subject.
