Factoid?!? So then it's untrue. If it were true it would be a "fact."

Yeah, I hadn't thought (consciously) about it, but "factoid" does have a slight connotation that the truthfulness could be somewhat in doubt. Under the circumstances (skepticism about WolframAlpha's accuracy), I think that that was the word to use, instead of "fact."
I have days like yours. Unfortunately, it's everyday.
