SharePoint Search Keyword Query

Question

Does anyone know the proper keyword or Query property to bring back ONLY sites? I am trying to create a SOAP QueryPacket for the SharePoint Search Web Service that allows users to search for sites based on their titles or descriptions.

I don't want any documents or lists or list items returned in the results.

You will want to search for the following:

• ContentClass = "STS_Site"
• ContentClass = "STS_Web"

I put together a tool to help testing and build search queries, might help, you can find it here: http://mosssearchcoder.codeplex.com/
