Comment (by thomasvonhassel):

 Just did some more testing.

 If i query for a metakey that does not exist at all, for any post, it
 return an empty string. If i query for a key that exists in some posts,
 but not the current post, it returns an empty array.

 No filters or plugins activated that do anything with the metadata.
