Man, I used to love this page! Haven't tried it in a while.
If I may I'd like to make a prediction; most people, excluding a few select (probably americans) are going to be considered social liberal leftists.
Anyway:
Economic Left/Right: -9.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -8.21

Interesting tool. I'm Economic Left/Right 1.75, Social Libertarian/Authoritarian -3.28.

Seems like I'm always in the minority everywhere I go. ;)

I think you're confusing racism with nationalism and conservative values. Nationalism definitely puts you on the right of the compass.

First of all, nationalism is not a right or left issue, it's (possibly) an authoritarian/libertarian issue. Stalin proved that better than anyone.

Secondly, "my race is better than everyone else's" has nothing to do with nationalism, and is basically the definition of racism.
The sweat and blood shed by its people had established a strong foundation upon which the most powerful entity in the world would be built.

Stalin is described on the page as left/authoritarian. Also, I'd wager than any answer other than "strongly disagree" to the rasist question would be interpreted as somewhat nationalistic. Not necessarily in a personal regard but definitely as national political one.
At least that's one way of looking at it. It's an internet questionnaire, after all. I'd take it with a grain of salt either way.

Yeah, that "my race is better than everyone else's" question is a weird one. It's oldschool racist and misplaced imo.
