How sure are we that Keyword Stuffing isn't Working?

As I've learned from training and many members within the WA Community, keyword stuffing is a BIG no-no when it comes to getting your site ranked in Google. I've also had first hand experience that keyword stuffing while in use of the All in One SEO plug-in will kill your rankings..

But I noticed this last night and today. I have a few keywords I'm front page on Google with, sitting ranked #5 behind 4 YouTube videos, and the website right below me is unbelievably PACKED with the same keyword.
I'm talking the keyword is in the title, the first paragraph at least three times and in the description at least 2-3 times. Not to mention the article/post the lady has, has the same keyword in it over 20 times. I was shocked to see she sat in front of much more legitimate sites and much more keyword friendly websites.
Anybody know how this could possibly be!?
