I could not replicate your results. When I made the move 1.e4 it showed 1...a5 with a 7 next to it. May have been a browser-side glitch parsing the JSON coming back from the server. The fact that your bar looks a little fatter than normal lends plausibility to this.
I was searching through the game explorer and after I clicked E4 for White it showed this:
When I clicked A5 which seems like a beginner's move this is what it showed:
If there are over 490,000+ games with the starting move A5 then why is there a total of only 13 seen continuations?
And if A5 is such a good move why couldn't I find it in my 2 databases...?
