Boilerpipe is a crude tool but cheap and effective enough for many sorts of websites. It does has a problem with pages with little text, just as all extractors have a degree of problems with little text.
I believe Boilerpipe adds the title hardcoded, or it is TikaParser doing it. I am not sure, but remember you can get rid of it by removing some lines of code. See TikaParser.java, i think it is there.
