Are you sure that's the correct registration date? I recall visiting that site last year... Or maybe it was in January after all.. Not sure now :/
Besides that, to make sure I wasn't crazy, I checked some chat logs I had. I did send some FML links to a friend on Jan 14th, so the domain was registered at least 4 days before the date mentioned. In that case, maybe it could have been simply re-registered, as sho mentioned.
