In the latest version of the Adwords API, Google announced the availability of the Bid Simulator (i.e. the ability to get estimated clicks, cost, and ad position).

However, I can't find any example code for this. Can anyone provide an example of how to lookup clicks, cost, and ad position given a keyword, match type, and max cpc using the Adwords v201003 API in Java?

A: 

As far as I can tell I think you mean the BidLandscapeService? For Java at least, if you download the beta Java client, there's an example, 'GetCriterionBidLandscape.java' which retrieves existing specified bid landscapes, from which the Set operations should be fairly straightfowrard. The 201003 release is still beta so I imagine that a corresponding Set example is still in the works.
