Is the Mongolian Invader Gaming Google Trends?

For some reason ‘Mongolian Invader’ is number four over at Google Trends. I say “for some reason” because the the news articles that accompany this search query (that being one single news reference since June 16th) is a spammy site. Could it be that someone is repetitively searching the keyword ‘Mongolian Invader’ to game Google Trends and gain traffic? Interesting bit of manipulation if this is the case.
