Why would OpenSiteExplorer say I have a 301 redirect when I don't?

I was looking at one of my sites in OpenSiteExplorer.org and it says my index page has a 301 redirect. I have not done that and I looked in my cpanel, I see no 301 redirect.

Any body have any ideas, I would appreciate it.

    Probably outdated data.

    If you have a Wordpress site, you'll have a 301 redirect from the www to the non-www (or vice-versa).

    Most people don't even realise that's set up in WP.

      Thanks Peter. I wanted to make sure I did not have a stealth 301 put in by someone else.
      What you say is most likely it.

      Yeah, and it should say that it is coming from your domain.

      If you see some other domain listed, then it is something else.
