Magic (and a lot of experimentation).

Good concept, congrats on this getting out, etc. but...

http://www.leandomainsearch.com/search?q=think

I clicked on five random ones marked available but always got '... is not really available' when I clicked 'Double check availability of this domain'

If there was a checkbox that said 'take more time but be sure of the available ones before showing me the report', I would have checked it.

Good answer, don't give away your secret sauce. Having said that, your magic isn't working too well. I searched for http://www.leandomainsearch.com/search?q=apps and literally EVERY SINGLE GREEN hit isn't really available after double-checking it. Seems like you'd need a 2nd secret sauce to further distill whatever the 1st run returned.

Hey -- there was a production bug that caused every result to come back as registered when you clicked "Double check availability". I fixed this a few minutes ago. Sorry about that.
