Is anybody else having these problem? How long is it expected for the
API to be down?
Thanks,
Jose

I get this Exception:
com.google.soap.search.GoogleSearchFault: [SOAPException:
faultCode=SOAP-ENV:Protocol; msg=Unsupported response content type
"text/html", must starts with "text/xml". Response
was:


The server encountered a temporary error and could not complete your
request.<p>Please try again in 30 seconds.

Maybe it's timeout issue.
You can setup timeout on search.Timeout

Imports com.google.api

Dim search As com.google.api.GoogleSearchService = New
GoogleSearchService
Dim result As GoogleSearchResult
Dim googlekeywordranking As New GoogleKeywordRanking()
search.Timeout = 500000
result = search.doGoogleSearch(key, q, start, 10, True, "", False, "",
"", "")

Note:
The time out, in milliseconds, for synchronous calls to the XML Web
service. The default is 100000 milliseconds.

Its been spotty for days
Google doesn't "actively" support it anymore. I wonder what that
means, exactly.. The servers will endure as long as they can, without
human intervention? Perhaps the emerging Google API will take them
under its wing :)

unfortunate, since I have a presentation of my research project really
soon ... I guess it's Murphy's Law

I think you can try google ajax search api.

http://www.google.com/uds/GwebSearch?callback=GwebSearch.RawCompletion&rsz=small&q=google+ajax&context=0&v=1.0&key=[your
api key]

It responses back the text as followings:
