Another thing to consider - when I spent a lot of time playing on the google newspaper search, there were a lot of errors made by the OCR technology, usually caused by crappy scans of the original. There were a large number of times were it would mistaken "the" as the word "tiki". Not sure if there is the same problem with the books.

So, if you have a collection of items with crappy scans, that could up the percentage of the OCR thinking the word tiki is there.
