Comment (by DD32):

 The results are the exact results which are returned from the
 [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php Extend: Plugins] bbPress
 installation, There is allready a custom plugin running on there to give
 weightings to certain items, But i agree its absolutely horrible.

 Quite often the first 1-2 pages will contain nearly the same 90% of
 plugins as a completely different search..

 Related: #8290 (ended up increasing the number of plugins from 6 to 24 per
 page to help with the useless search results)
