Akiba is often short for Akihabara, an area of Tokyo. Akihabara is a major shopping area for electronic, computer, anime, and otaku goods, including new and used items. (source http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akihabara)

While greatness will be mimicked there is also the possibilty of this phrase being used in other sites with no mimicry intended, nor would I feel that to be an uncommon case.

As far as the aforementioned examples previously given, I can not say one way or another, as I did not investigate the age of the sites nor their content. Going by the sites names solely, it would seem at least one of them is attempting to cash in on this sites name.
