All of a sudden I keep getting several crawler errors "page not found" and a keyword I was ranked #1 in is now a keyword I'm not even on the first page of google for. All over night. I use wordpress Thesis theme and would appreciate any help in resolving it. Thanks!

First off, do you have the Google XML Sitemaps plugin installed? If yes, do a manual update of the file now. If not, add it.

Second, install Broken Link Checker if you have not already. Fix broken redirects and if you have internal links that are broken, you can use that to fix them.

Third, it sounds like you are using Google Webmaster Tools to find these issues. Do a deep dig in that information to see if there is anything else missing that could be causing the problem.

Take a look at where the 'link not found' is coming from.  Sometimes you'll see it could be from an outside site that linked to you incorrectly.

And I agree with using a sitemaps plugin to make sure the SE's know what your content is.

As for a keyword, monitor it.  They tend to fluctuate and one day you can be high up, next day it disappears, then you pop up again.  Also, what were you using to measure your position?  If you are using search results then those could be skewed by cookies and such.
