Google Search Trends Timeliness Issues

The following Google Trends data is presently 3 weeks stale. I’m somewhat confused as to this gap between the daily Google Hot Trends and Google Trends data not being in real time.

I first noticed this comparison of Ron Paul, Mitt Romney, Fred Thompson, John McCain and Rudy Giuliani in this blog post - Top Google Search Trends in Iowa.

Does anyone understand why this time gap exists in Google or plans for resolving it?
