I suspect a bug in their system.  I checked a handful of unrouted blocks 
from our address space and eventually hit a /24 from which senderbase 
lists an IP with magnitude 0.48, but the space hasn't been routed for 13 
months.  They say they saw something from it on 2010-04-06...which I'd say 
is highly unlikely.
