So you're assuming Google is editing out the porn sites. I was assuming porn sites legitimately didn't make the page, and I was surprised by that.

maybe, is it time for creating pornoogle.com?

I could see porn sites not legitimately making that page. First of all the categories are nearly all "Fastest Rising", you can easily imagine porn queries being less volatile. Also, despite porn's popularity, there are basically no porn stars famous enough to pull the same number of queries as a Katy Perry or a Shakira.
