I just checked one of my sites and I almost threw my drink at the monitor when I saw that the PR was 3... but when I added the "www" to the url it went back to a 5 like I thought it was supposed to be.
Why is this?

because www.domain.com and domain.com are infact 2 different domains.. to google anyway.
You obviously have more people linking to www.domain.com than the one without it. -
The reply is in the question.. you should add www to the domain name you are checking

Excellent info, I'm going to print this page out and sleep on it. Thanks :P
xclusive, you really think I would get a jump in PR? I doubt if my PR 3 without the www comes from incoming links, as i don't think there are that many. PR seems (to me) to be similar to the Richter scale, 5 to 6 seems to be twice as hard to get as 4 to 5. I could be wrong though.Comment

It really depends on how many links you have coming in for you. If it's a bunch then you might see a point jump from switching them but it's google so common sense doesn't always work...Comment

It also depends on the page ranking of the pages doing the linking.Originally posted by xclusive
If you have millions of pages linking to www. and you get a PR 5 and you have a handful of sites linking to the other, but those sites have PR's higher than 5.... then yeah, it *might* have an effect on your overall rank.Comment
