An error for a tiny amount:
 TRD bitstamp 0.000001 @ 801,988.932552 BTC r9JS9fLbtLzgBCdFCnS3LpVPUBJAmg7PnM #132

We will look into it.

It looks like just rounding. A single drip was leftover from an offer that was taken first because it was the first one placed at the best current rate. It traded for a very, very, small amount of bitcoins (less than an 800 millionth of a bitcoin), resulting in a nonsensical division result.

XRP market price has been steadily falling for the last couple of days after peaking at about 175-200 XRP per USD.

It is a bug in the display routine.

Ripple > Trade tab is the place.
If you don't feel like putting in the effort to learn how it's working, there are also OTC buy offers hovering around in the alt-coin forum.
