Actually, the number of backlinks has always seemed irrelevant - I used to link extensively to it from my chronicles-network (off-topic site), and at one point I'm sure there were around a 800 backlinks showing because of it

Multiple links from the same site don't really help much. Google appears to filter it - even though they show up as backlinks, I have learned to think of those as "hallow links". Impotent for SEO purposes, and good only for traffic.
I have some site with more links than you can shake a stick at. This site - IMR - has links on over 30,000 indexed pages. But they do very, very little for the SE ranking.
What matters is getting more good anchor text links from more IP's and more domains. (I'm thinking more IP's, rather than domains.)
