This might be due to my initial experiments with the api (which didn't include caching and throttling) but as of 4 days ago, all queries to HNSearch api return stale results.
For example:
returns:

Hi Harris,
Thanks for letting us know about the problem. It looks like our indexing script went down over the weekend but it should be working again:
We're working on some improvements that should make everything more robust.

Hey Andres,
Harris
Is it just me or is the api down?
Thanks,

Hi Harris,
The API is working but results are stale as of midnight last night. We're upgrading the search engine so index updates are off right now. Everything should be up-to-date by tomorrow.

Did the API somehow change? My hotness results have been broken for a few days:

We upgraded to a new solr binary which has stricter validation rules. To fix the problem with the hotness results in popdots, reverse 'NOW' and 'create_ts' in the ms() function.
