Hi,

There is a question.

Google API doc reads that the maximum value per query is 10, I understand that Google doesn't want to burden its servers, but come on 10 is peanuts. So if you are allowed only 1000 queries per day, that gives you 10*1000=10000 rows, are there any workarounds? Moreover, if you get 10 first results how can you get next 10, 20?

Thanks in advance,

Ivan Pupkin

There are none that are within the scope of the API TOS. 10 is it.

Jordan,

The max number of results per query is 10. Yup. :-> You can get the next ten results (in Perl, at least) by doing loops. I've built Perl scripts using the Perl API that get 900 results. Of course, that pretty much tanks my key for the day. :->

Thanks for your reply,

I have already found a solution. But still, if you need more than 10000 results per day then the only solution is another key. Yet anyway I think you can hack it, for example I know that Google toolbar has already been cracked by a russian programer (dis-assembled), he wrote a programe that acts like Google toolbar by sending a hash string to Google, so he can get PR with no problem.
