Forgive me, I'm a n00b!

What does the Google w/ext and Google w/o ext mean exactly in SartNames "Link Popularity" results?

I have started building a new site which is not promoted and gets very little traffic, and I run it through StartName just out of interest, and got the following:

Google: 0
Google w/ext: 41
Google w/o ext: 14,300 !?!

w/ext = with extension = mydomain.com
w/o ext = without extension = mydomain

w/ext = with extension = mydomain.com
w/o ext = without extension = mydomain

So basically what that those stats are saying is that someone has a site with the same name but a different extension to mine, and that it's roughly 1,000 times more popular!?
 
your domain, without the extension included means " how many results" for the terms or actual words, that make up your domain name.

your domain, with the extension included means "how many results" for "yourdomain.com"
 
Okay, that makes more sense!
Thanks biggedom.
