When I do the above for my project MARF (http://ohloh.org/projects/3508) ...

Sorry, MARF's URL is http://marf.sourceforge.net and http://ohloh.org/projects/3508 is its ohloh entry.

Hi mokhov,

My apologies - the faq steps weren't specific enough. I updated them now. The key was to use siteexplorer's inlinks functionality (not the site pages -- as you were seeing). Another point I will add to the FAQ is that the numbers seen from siteexplorer and from what we get using the Yahoo Search API are sometimes a slightly different. In MARF's case, for example, siteexplorer says 38 while the Yahoo Search API says 83.

Okay...

That's 2x difference! Please keep using the Search API :-D

Thanks.
