I was surprised to see six results from the same domain for this query: http://www.google.co...lient=firefox-a - it also works with a number of variations on the end of the name.
That's the most I've ever seen!
What could possibly make this site/ search buck the 'query deserves diversity' element of search results for a term?
It's not as if there's a shortage of other sites to offer (4,400 results for that query) and the site doesn't appear to have been built with SEO in mind.

That's because it's a branded search which implies you are looking for the Brand's website. So that's what you get.
It's a new way of displaying results for those types of searches, which makes a lot of sense to me.

That's what I thought - but trying some vaguely comparative searches with restaurants of similar size and even recognised brands brought up two, at most, from the same domain.
I was just surprised to see that many on one page.

What about this?
http://www.google.co...lient=firefox-a
There are three results from myanmars.net at the top.

And?
Google have been doing that for some search results for a couple of weeks now, sometimes you get that instead of "sitelinks".
It happens more if your query is fairly specific such as:
http://www.google.com/search?q=modtalk
And of you may also see "sitelinks" on a result that is not #1. It's simply Google working with, and testing their SERP UI.

Yeah, it is a little disturbing. I like to think they're only doing it when those top results from the one site really are the most relevant for the search query, but it could get dicey if they move further away from clustering.
