We just released a new version of the API with two new features: support for custom ranking and reporting.

It is now possible to customize the order of items returned in the items and snippets feeds via two parameters, 'orderby' and 'sortorder'. Parameter 'orderby' determines the criteria that is used for ordering items (e.g. by relevancy, or by the last modification time), parameter 'sortorder' specifies whether items are returned in ascending or descending order. Detailed explanations can be found in the API documentation. See:

http://code.google.com/apis/base/attrs-queries.html#sorting http://code.google.com/apis/base/snippets-feed.html http://code.google.com/apis/base/ranking-lang-spec.html

The new parameter 'content' can be used to specify what information gets returned per entry in a feed. By default, elements in the atom and g namespace are provided, but by setting 'content' to 'attributes,meta' one can now add statistics like the number of impressions, clicks, and page views. More details can be found here:
