i base my assumptions on this:

when i first registered the domain, there was no results in google when i did a search for 'domain.com'

after a while collecting freesites with linkback, i checked my link popularity, with the 'link: domain.com' and found 30 or so links.

still no result for my domain. nothing, no visits from googlebot.

after writing the email, my domain shows up in the index, when searching for 'domain.com', but when i check the cache of the page, its some goofy page that the previously owner must have created, because i sure didnt make the page.

so, to me it seems like the google staff just changed some status flag on my domain, and thus it showed up in the index. with the old page that is.

anyways, google sure works in mysterious ways ..
