beginner fake torrent question

On almost any of the torrent sites (for example torlock) , when you search for a torrent, you can enter anything as text and the first 2 or 3 results show you can download the torrent.

So you could search for xkdfjkewrfja and it would get a positive hit and show 2 or 3 possible downloads for xkdfjkewrfja although it is clearly just made up text. One is for the full version, one is for the HD version. What is that?

What are those fake results? Not that I would ever download this but is it malware?
