As noted in the "future improvements" section, C-named languages are
hard to distinguish.

But it looks like this is not merely a slight problem but potentially
invalidates the results. In your most recent update (Mon Jul 06
22:04:22 +0200 2009) there are a couple of charts where three
languages beginning with C are quite obviously being treated as a
single language. Specifically the Amazon and programming.reddit.com
charts.

Yes, I'm aware of the problem. The Amazon one in particular is
disappointing, as this is a regression; it didn't use to do that. If
they haven't fixed it by the next round... I'm not sure, maybe I'll
use yahoo search results for amazon.com.
