      I just did my first crawl, and a bunch of the keywords show my rank as being like 76 or 102 and I'm number 1 for the search when I search manually.

      **I of course have personal results turned off and I'm not logged into gmail when I search.

        Are you searching while logged out and in incognito mode?  You could just be seeing personalized and/or localized results.  What is the term and I will tell you what I see on page one.

        ** I think I posed this while you were adding your edit 🙂  OK - I retract my question 🙂

            Yeah - I saw it after I posted my question.  If it was already there, I apologize for missing it.  What is the term and I will tell you what I see on page one. (I am in Jacksonville, FL)

            Are you seeing this discrepancy in Google only?

              There are to many to list:  However this is a good example:

              Professional japanese shears

              SEOmoz rank put me like on page 6 or 7, yet I'm number 2 in google?

                This is what I get for page one:

                www.hattorihanzoshears.com
                www.kasho-usa.com/‎
                www.amazon.com
                search.ebay.com
                www.mysalontools.com/top-10-best-hair-shears‎
                www.shears4u.com/‎
                www.dhgate.com
                www.precisionshears.com
                www.youtube.com
                www.washiscissor.com

                does this follow the crawl or what you see?

                    It could be that SEOMoz hasn't updated their index since you started ranking page one.  I could be incorrect (and please, anyone, correct me if I am) but I believe they work off of their own index that updates periodically rather than using Google's live index.
