I was intrigued to read this theory (http://tehdely.livejournal.com/88823.html), that would make Amazon the victim of a troll campaign - an outside group flagging GLBT content as adult en masse over a holiday weekend when presumably Amazon would be slower to fix things. That would explain you seeing another book drop from the rankings over the course of the weekend - I can't think of a good reason for Amazon to be doing this gradually now, unless they have some new Oh Noes Gay Might Get On My Shoe! intern on staff or something.
I've heard Amazon is looking in to it and going to provide a statement tomorrow. I'm going to sit on my angry letter another couple days to see what's going on. If it really is amazon deeming normal, loving homosexual relationships as pornographic, it's utterly reprehensible, but if they're being trolled, I don't wanna feed it.
