Hello,
as you can see at this statistic, today I get -50 credits by SETI@home. How is this possible?

They had to redo the replica database(the stats are drawn from this) Right now it is still trying to catch up to real time or at least close so it will be a bit screwy until it does. It's about 6 hours behind so a lot of the stats will be wrong.

I'm having flashbacks to the -1M credit workunits at BETA.

Take a look at this thread. I've attempted an explanation there..
