Is it possible that this service would simply be used to provide the 'seed' sites for a search oriented Trust Rank implementation? If it enabled them to build a consistent and well balanced set of weights for a wide range of sites, it would certainly pay for itself simply by making their search options that much more effective and comprehensive.
It could also add another way for them to calculate page rank. People going directly to a site without searching for it, would be able to add their 'vote' for the site without having to add a link to it from a website.
Just a couple of random thoughts.
