When you do a search via the forums, the maximum number of results it will display is 500, which means that the 500 matching will often be more recent posts when there are over a million posts on the site now.
The users who are finding old threads are likely searching for obscure keywords or phrases that don't match a lot of threads and so the old ones come up.
If you specifically want to look for old posts, go to the advanced search page:
http://www.socialanxietysupport.com/forum/search.php
Under options, set these two options:
1) Find Posts from [A Year Ago] [and Older]
2) Sort Results by [Last Posting Date] [in Ascending Order]
That should get you some old results. When I used those options and searched for "anxiety", I got posts from 2004.
