I can sit at my desk and open different browsers and see different google results...

I can sit at the same desk and remote to a PC on the other side of town and see still more different results searching for the exact same keywords in the exact same browsers...

I can open my iphone and see yet more different results... same if I get out my ipad....

I have not left my chair!

My question to you is... which are the "right results"?

These reports are valuable for  tracking your progress over time.  That is why SEOMoz gives you a history.

Don't worry if you see different things when you search.  There are personalized results, localized results, experimental results (did you know google serves tons of different experimental results every day?  - read "In the Plex" if you want to know more) and much more.

People sometimes expect miracles from the tool, instead of using tools to do miracles.

For the same reason you have avg. position for particular keyword in google webmaster tools.
