Stockfish 1 is not 1350...

http://en.lichess.org/FMjunuAf/black#42

Not even close. It makes no attempts to win. This game of mine is a prim example of it...

I attempt to hang my queen like 9 times this game. It's like no thanks each and every time. The first 3 times the computer would have had a sizable advantage, the 4th time the computer would have been able to equalize or close to... yet it simply flat out refuses to take my queen.

The computer intentionally loses. The computer refuses to attack. The computer refuses free material. I don't see how even players rated under 1000 would have much difficulty vs the machine on this level.

1350 is a way the wrong rating... more like 350 if that

I managed to beat the machine in 21 moves...
-won all it's material
-moved 1 pawn 1 time
-moved the queen 90 percent of the time
-only used the bishop to mate after all the material was eaten

I'm sorry if I tried to play "this way" vs a 1350 I'm pretty sure they would have a pretty easy win.
It seems to have an interesting way of limiting it's playing strength. Maybe it's never allowed to play the best move so it will never take a queen, except if it's forced or if there is an even better move.
I think that in game Stockfish1 vs Intelligentdesign,
Stockfish played at level 800 but You must remember that thanks this game,We've this topic,it's so funny,really but it's no big problem at the moment,
Besides,I think that levels 1,2,3 are for begginer or drunken Players,
it's so easy to win and to give artistic checkmate
This is no level AI. I mean, once You get the idea with untouchable queen, there is no point in playing this level AI.

It wont take Q, so even 100 rated player can win the game.
In an older thread there was a competition to see who could beat AI Level 1 in the fewest moves, I think five was the winner. Perhaps a harder competition would be who can lose to AI Level 1 the fastest.
