Sometime they dont have enough resources for that keyword. There might be some new trend (consequently new keywords) which are yet not updated. Keyword analysis tools are not perfect but it really helps us to reduce our work I agree with your points. Sometime they dont have enough resources for that keyword.

Nothing is 100%, not even web logs, but you have to start somewhere. I use keyword tools as a starting point to get data. Nothing is 100%, not even web logs, but you have to start somewhere.

I agree that keyword research needs to be over a broader range of tools. I also use market samurai but also compare results against Google Insights as well. To be quite honest I find Google insights to be my number one tool when looking at different search terms as it provides a trends grapg which can be used world wide or targeted to one specific country. As you well know, trends come and go, what is the highest searched term this month may not be the next month or for the rest of the year...holidays & special occasions are great examples of this.

Sometimes I doubt the numbers that these tools give me. None the less I have no other way of knowing search trends or keyword searches etc. So I rely mainly on market samurai. I'm sure those that own it, know that it's one of the best out there. Keyword research is tough and these tools ease the pain a little :P but sometimes it doesn't hurt to apply a little common sense.
