People sometimes expect miracles from the tool, instead of using tools to do miracles.
For the same reason you have avg. position for particular keyword in google webmaster tools.

(This response is copy/pasted from another thread where the same question was asked.)
I can sit at my desk and open different browsers and see different google results...
I can sit at the same desk and remote to a PC on the other side of town and see still more different results searching for the exact same keywords in the exact same browsers...
I can open my iphone and see yet more different results... same if I get out my ipad....
I have not left my chair!
My question to you is... which are the "right results"?
These reports are valuable for tracking your progress over time. That is why SEOMoz gives you a history.
Don't worry if you see different things when you search. There are personalized results, localized results, experimental results (did you know google serves tons of different experimental results every day? - read "In the Plex" if you want to know more) and much more.

Why is the weekly rankings report often inaccurate?
Does anybody else notice that the Moz weekly rankings report are often inaccurate? Many times it says a keyword (or many keywords) fell out of the top 50, although when I manually check the keyword in a Google search, it still shows that those keywords are ranking in the top 10. I've done these manual searches with personalized search settings turned off, as well as from a completely unbiased computer. Why is this happening? Does anybody have any suggestions? Thank you!

Crawl results on keyword rankings differ from actual search rankings
For the second week in a row, the weekly keyword rankings in my MOZ account show "not in top 50" for most keywords. However, when I check some of my rankings I still broadly have the rankings that I used to have. It seems that the MOZ crawl is experiencing some difficulties. Does anyone have suggestions how to find out what's going on? If I can't rely on the crawl outcomes, then the tool is not very useful anymore!

Ranking report and language
Unfortunately I noticed a huge problem in rank tracker amd ranking report. My site is in italian and I configurate the ranking report using google italy.

Infact for a specific keyword the ranking position is 8 (using english) and 12 (using italian). This is a huge problem for me and makes useless any report! F

SEOMoz Toolbar in Chrome
The SEOMoz toolbar is displayed very differently in Chrome as compared with Firefox. It 'overlaps' the page, showing on top of the content instead of offsetting the page/window. In other words, the footer or the header of the page (depending on what toolbar location is chosen in the Settings) is eclipsed by the Toolbar. This was not an issue in Firefox. Has anyone experienced the same problem with the toolbar? How can I make the toolbar integrate into the browser window itself rather that popping up on top of the rendered webpage? Thanks.
