If you care to observe any other site that shows fresh content, e.g. blogs,
you will find that all such results in Google will disappear for a day or
more while the Thought Police, sorry, the Google algorithm decides the best
ranking for it. 

For example, a few days ago I blogged about the ACCC taking on Google and
the Trading Post. My blog (I just changed its URL) was #3 for "Kloster
Ford". It disappeared for two days, and now it is slightly lower -- in what
could be its semi-permanent position for that phrase.

All newly found pages are given a brief exposure on the first page so that
the algo can determine which of them attract clicks, which is then part of
the data used to give them their semi-permanent rankings for various
phrases.
