How to get more results using Ajax api?

[wrybread]

I'm using the Ajax from a non-javascript environment as detailed here:

http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxsearch/documentation/#fonje

The problem is its only returning 4 results. How do I get more
results?

For example, this URL returns 4 results:

"http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/web?v=1.0&q=Paris
%20Hilton"

I tried appending a "num" parameter, but that had no effect:

"http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/web?v=1.0&q=Paris
%20Hilton&num=20"

Thanks for any help.

Two things you're going to need:

&rsz=large will give you 8 results at a time AND

&start=[0, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56] where the parameter you send is
ONE of the values in square brackets. This will let you get
subsequent pages of 8 results each

All of that said, please note that you can only retrieve up to the
first 64 results of any given search. For Local, that ceiling is 32
results, and for Blog, it's 8.

Gar.... Is there any way to retrieve more than 64 results?

You can utilize the Yahoo! BOSS API, which I believe returns up to
1,000 results in blocks of 50 per request. For more than that, you'll
probably have to go with the Alexa Web Search API, but that is a for-
pay interface.
