Comment (by dmchale):

 After doing some testing, I believe this appears to be a bug with the
 Plugins API itself, not something within Core. I was able to confirm that
 the same issue exists within the live WordPress repository.

 https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?page=95&q=press

 The website lists 8 per page, and reports 100 pages (which should be
 correct for 793 results). However, all pages above 95 report "no results
 found" and you'll note that the final plugins listed on page 95 match the
 reported issue from page 26 when doing this search from a WordPress
 installation.

 I believe 793 is an incorrect number being returned for some reason,
 rather than the actual number of results that are publicly visible.
