Yes, I'm noticing exactly the same thing. I receive the following XML response from search.yahooapis.com/SiteExplorerServices/V1/: <Error xmlns="urn:yahoo:api"> The following errors were detected: <Message>service temporarily unavailable [C:28]</Message> </Error> It seems the error is *only* with the API because when I try the same searches using the browser interface at siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com, everything seems normal and I receive more than 50 results.

It was very slow when I used it this morning and it's not working for me at all now. I'm in the UK.

Well, okay, it's a free service, but its a pity that yahoo doesn't tell anything about it on there api-pages :-/ A small hint there would just be polite.

Is there anybody who knows where to get support about Yahoo! web services?

There is definitely a problem with [siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com....] It was completely in accessible for about a week. That problem was repaired the second week of October. Now the new problem is that the service only returns 50 results. This is consistent both via the public URL (http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com) and the web services API URL: (http://search.yahooapis.com/SiteExplorerService/V1/inlinkData/) Even for www.microsoft.com, the results show 50 results. This is really terrible. I hope they fix it soon.

When I try to go to: [siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com...] , it opens the page to a far eastern site - [hi.baidu.com...] I'm accessing from the UK - does anyone know why this is happening? [edited by: martinibuster at 4:57 am (utc) on Oct. 19, 2007] [edit reason] Fixed URL. [/edit]

yea, b/c china seems to have redirected search traffic from yahoo, google and microsoft to baidu. Try doing a search on Google and see what happens.

That is exactly what was happening in China at this time. Any chance his ISP resolves to China? :) Check the news on "China Google or Yahoo Baidu" You will see what I mean.
