Webmaster Tools Average position for search queries wrong?

[siva s]

I have been reviewing google webmaster tools search queries and have filtered. I am listed as "1.0" for average position in webmaster tools.

My Avg position (according to webmaster tools) = 1.0, but actual position = 5.

What happened for search results? How can I get 1st position?

I think that's a position at a amount of time they collect, not at the time you're checking. Perhaps when you check your rank, it's decrease.
