When I logged on to Meta SO a few minutes ago, a brown message said I have earned a "Self Learner Badge". But when I look at my badges, it's not there.
Where did it go?

Answered your own question with score of 3 or more
As far as I can tell, you don't have any answers that qualify - so you shouldn't have earned it in the first place.
Is it possible someone downvoted a a self-answer and its score dropped from 3 to 2? (Even so, you're not supposed to be able to un-earn badges).

1There's only one self answer I can see and that's at a score of -2. Maybe when all the downvotes went AWOL the badge was issued and later rescinded? Aug 9, 2010 at 23:13

@ Jon B and Martin Smith: I've marked Jon's answer and upvoted both Jon's answer and Martin's comment because they both sound like plausible reasons; thank you both for researching this. Aug 10, 2010 at 19:25
