Thanks for compiling this, Gendalph! I'll get to deleting them slowly.

I also suggest deleting tons of useless commands (almost all of them
are longer than 10 chars), like:
EasyToDo-byRVAppStudios
Top&BestMother'sDayEntertainmentiPhone&iPodTouchAppstoDownload
newipadcontract
neverending

And commands that are no longer used (last use, say, before September
1, 2011).

Is there an api, to change commands, which changed? I created some,
where the urls changed slightly. Or is there only the manuel API?

Hi Stefan,

There's no API - just email me the new urls and I can update the database.
