No, this is one of the exceptions to the general rule I mentioned ;)
Your url's name is identical to the subject, therefore it's automatically
ranked higher.
E.g. if you're looking for "cats", a site with the url cats.org will be
ranked higher than allaboutnothing.com, even if the contents are identical.
Google is indeed a very sophisticated system.
