[android-developers] Do unique app names mean nothing in the Android Market?

I released a free app about a week ago, called TimePiece (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.arpitonline.worldclock). I picked a name pretty close to the end of the dev process since it seemed less important. Before publishing to the store I searched for a couple of non conflicting terms and picked TimePiece since no-one seemed to have used it.

Its been about a week since I added my app. I can find it by searching for "arpitonline" which is declared in the package and also as the publisher, but not by searching for TimePiece (the EXACT name for the app).

Anyone know why this is? And what is the best convention for naming apps for Market release since exact names seem to count for little.
