I don't know how you qualify to "honorable". The site fr.opensuse.org is open since February (3 month) and a site search shows:
site:fr.opensuse.org
Résultats 1 - 10 sur un total d'environ 36 800 provenant de fr.opensuse.org
Searching using the site: prefix only looks at hits on that site, and therefore shows how extensively the googlebot has crawled the site. It's not hard for a site to come to the top of a list of pages on that site.
Martin's search showed how high his google pagerank would be for an open search of all the sites in google's database for a search phrase of interest. Getting a good google page rank ostensibly means that other web sites with good page ranks are linking to the site.
