Hapax legomenon: a word or form occurring only once in a document or corpus [m-w]
Googlewhack: a Google search query consisting of two words, that returns a single result

Turns out that I'm not the first to think of this: hapax legomenon is referenced on Googlewhack's wikipedia page.
Doesn't this make you nostalgic for Latin literary devices?
