How are you detecting these backlinks?

Google's public link search for instance does not show all links on purpose.

I used google webmaster tools and yahoo site explorer, all the links are still where I put them and where there at one time but now there not and my page rank droped.

Well, it could be that some of the sites you had links from were deindexed or banned or penalized for some reason. Google Webmaster Central should be pretty accurate with link counts.
