ga:pageviewsPerSearch is probably what you want

Yes, but this metric exists?I'm looking for in all docs and can't see
it.

Colud you help me?
if I make a query forward Data Exporta API the response is: "No such
metric(s): ga:pageviewsPerSearch"

Thank's

Cespar-

If I'm reading this right you're looking for *total* pageviews by internal search keyword-  i.e if 10 people type "red shoes" and go to a single result page, you'd see "red shoes - 10".

what you're looking for is:
dimension: searchKeyword
metric: pageviews

You can try it out in the query explorer using this link:

Enjoy!

Not exactly, I'm looking for Results Pageviews by internal search.
You can see this data in Site Search overview report in third
position.
In Analytics help in "How are the metrics for internal site search
calculated?" section says: "Results Pageviews / Search = Pageviews of
search result pages / Total Unique Searches", I would like to get this
data with Data Export API but I don't know what metrics and dimensions
I have to use.

Thank's again!

My bad. That is a calculated metric we added.

ga:pageviewsPerSearch = ga:pageviews / ga:uniquePageviews

Used with Internal Search dimensions.
