Hi Samira,

Ah, right.

Whenever you release something to CPAN, it is also copied to BackPAN, which is 
an archive of everything that's ever been released to CPAN. When you delete 
something from your PAUSE account, it is no longer on CPAN, but remains on 
BackPAN.

When you do regular searches on MetaCPAN, it just shows things that are 
currently on CPAN, but some of the "sidebar functions" can show you results 
based on what's on BackPAN, i.e. everything ever released, and not just what's 
current.

I don't have a mechanism for deleting things off BackPAN, as it's intended as 
an archive.

Cheers,
Neil
