Possibly, wizards who are fully trained and adults are 'registered' and 
not monitored?  So only 'unregistered magic' might trigger alarms. 
Dobby isn't really supposed to do magic, being a non-human and Harry is 
under-aged.  Fudge made some mention of Figg being/not being 
'registered'.  If squibs are 'registered', then wizards may be to??

Or.. there are spells or magical items that block the MOM from detecting 
magic from those who use them.  Seems the Order might have ways to 
prevent the MOM from knowing what magic they are using.

Or the Order got permission from the MOM to go get Harry and move him 
elsewhere for whatever reason?
