You'll also see that IP changes with time, what is obvious as they
probably have a server farm.

Actually, they have a number of server farms (at least 6 that I know of), and they
average 15,000 really cheap rack mount boxes a farm.  Or something in that ballpark
anyhow.  Google for it, they've talked a number of times about how they make things
work (stuff like RAM actually being TCO-wise cheaper than disk because the added
speed means they need fewer servers, etc...)
