For reasons yet unknown (although we have our suspicion...), Google is currently returning the Live PageRank value of zero (0) for any and all pages. This kind of breaks this tool in the way that it no longer displays your Live PageRank, but you can still use it for checking Toolbar PR across datacenters.
In the words of Google Engineer Matt Cutts:
Q: "Is the RK parameter turned off, or should we expect to see it again?"
A: I wouldn?t expect to see the RK parameter have a non-zero value again.
Q: "What?s an RK parameter?"
A: It?s a parameter that you could see in a Google toolbar query. Some people outside of Google had speculated that it was live PageRank, that PageRank differed between Bigdaddy and the older infrastructure, etc.
We are working towards this tool to still be useful in some ways.

It works fine.

They are still adding in backlinks as we speak, I have one domain that is pretty hooked up that was showing only 1 backlink this morning, now has a couple of pages... so I think they are nowhere near done.
