If I'm building a commercial search engine to display results from Yahoo! search, should I use BOSS or the Yahoo Web Search API?

What's the difference?

+1  A: 

The Web Search API is deprecated. Please use BOSS. The usage limits are better as is the interface.

A: 

I am implementing YAHOO BOSS API search. It was working fine. Now, we need to make a statistical report for sites results count for particular search criteria. I can't find any option in this guide.

How we make that?

Yahoo API has any option to making statistic for particular sites? Or else any options have to finding site counts for particular search criteria?

Please help me.

Thanks., Anand
