means "until" or "up to" in Japanese - the problem is that it is not as self-contained as the word "until" in English. I guess it makes as much sense in Japanese as "upto.com" makes in English. Overall, it's pretty speculative I think.

Yes it's the commercial value of averaging all the prepositions in English, not basing value on length.
My translation would be "until.com"
You have to think that the Dictionary term registrations came after everything else was registered.
