I assume that you are worried that the university will run your personal statement through a database and it will match up with the one that you posted online? How long was it online? It sounds like it was only online for a very short period of time, in which case, hopefully, the plagiarism database may not have had time to catalog or index it. From what I understand, the most commonly used ones are not always very efficient at cataloging new web information.

Also, if you do get flagged, I would definitely explain this situation to the admissions office - it does not sound like horribly unbelievable story.
