Remember, this only pertains to admins who have configured their forum to have post-based member-groups.

Try the following:

http://url.com/index.php?action=mlist;sa=search;fields=group;search=administrator

Notice, it will say no members found...

I have post based member groups configured on my forums and that link does find all administrators.

Are you talking about no admin members being found here? If so, there isn't actually an administrator based group on this site.

Try something like action=mlist;sa=search;fields=group;search=developer and you'll see members come up.

I tried it on my SMF 2.x forum, relatively clean install and it didn't find one...

I have a test board with no mods installed and no membergroup changes and it doesn't work for me either.

what if you search for a group other then administrator or global moderator?

It works if I search for a post group

if you are searching for administrator group part of the issue is that it is not really a normal group due to the way it is coded. if you try adding another primary membergroup i bet it will search fine as you can search here for support specialist and find people in that group.
