I think you tend to lose the "as" in headlines. This is a combined search that dos indeed suggest that the world has steadily got less successful since 2004: http://news.google.com/arch...

Whilst it does look like you're right about 2004, does anyone really use the phrase "hailed a success"?

I would have thought the more conventional phrase is "hailed as a success".

Which also peaked in 2004.

Interestingly "hailed as success" indicates a massive dip in 2004.

There you go.
