Because the search found...

1,000 questions
1,000 answers
47 articles

all containing the word 'guardian'
...and why is that bothering you. Hwfa? The latest results are up to date and at the top.
Following on from Mamya's answer:

. . . and because the search facility is limited to a maximum of 1000 questions and 1000 answers (with only the most recent 1000 of each shown).

So when people contribute to new threads containing the word 'Guardian', their posts are added to the top of the pile of 1000 indexed posts, with other (older) posts being pushed out of the indexing system, so that there are still just 1000 posts listed within it.
Are you sure its not their readers or the number of times they have written articles critical of the Government.
