Yahoo Search Showing Less Links in Site Explorer?

A DigitalPoint Forums thread reports that Yahoo Site Explorer seems to be showing less and less link data every month for some sites.

Personally, I do not track my link counts in Yahoo Site Explorer. But at this moment in time, I see that this site has 64,564 links.

Many people report a large drop in those counts over the past few months.

I have three sites that lost over 1000 backlinks. how did this happen? did it happen to anyone else?

I went from 38000 to 2300
