Hi,
Yes, actually I'm getting different results for your site with
site:example.com &
site:www.example.com
Lots of webmasters are having the same problem at the moment.
Matt Cutts is trying to suggest that Google are giving a lower priority to spidering sites that are involved in "spammy link exchanges" - your links pages look pretty professional though.
I had a site go like yours that had no recips at all, but the htaccess file I used to redirect the "non www" pages to the "www" ones got dropped when we changed server recently.
I've been promoting the site too aggressively though, I have to say, so I'm wondering now whether Google is having canonical problems with its index, or whether I've been hit for my backlink campaign.
In any case if I were you, I'd set up an htaccess file to do the redirect to www.example.com - you can do it from CPANEL but make sure you choose the "permanent" 301 option, not the "temporary" 302 one.
More details here:

Cheers,
Paz.
