Google Feed API (or News) using JSON/XML to Find the Number of linked articles of a news item

[Miles Barnett]

Hello,

I've searched the topics and the web for an answer to this problem to no avail.

For those of you that have not checked out newsola you really should!

What I would like to do is similar to that site:, in which they organise news items according to how many 'linked' articles there are. (Please refer to their 'tip box' on mouse over of a news item)

I haven noticed that on individual google news items you can see a timeline of articles but no exact number, on the bottom of the page it does however say "see all x articles"

This is not a item of the JSON in the Feeds application, and i have not noticed anything in the news search api that would give me this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time,

Miles Barnett
