The Kotaku blog feed doesn't seem to be catching comments for posts... a cursory inspection of Kotaku's code indicates it ought to be possible to count the comments (they nest them in a <ul>)

(observed at: http://www.aiderss.com/all/kotaku.com)

As much as comments are a great measurement of post activity, is there any chance we might get an API option to ignore them when calculating PostRank? I understand that auto-identifying comment counts can be something of a voodoo science--it'd be nice if there was an option to ignore comments in favor of all of the (more vetted) data AideRSS collects.

Thanks for your time, and keep up the awesome work!

I get PostRank with API http://api.postrank.com/v1/postrank, but the result is different with the PostRank on aideRSS site, Why?

And, is there any difference between http://api.postrank.com/v1/postrank and http://api.aiderss.com/postrank

Are you all ever going to be able to get the comment thing correct? Since i first reported to you that your system was not picking up any of our comments, we have had more than 70,000 comments on our site. Aiderss has not reported even one of them. I received a first reply saying you were workign on it and then ever so often i have dropped you further mail on the topic and have not had a response to the 4-5 other notes i have passed you . I'm game to do whatever we need to do to get picked up and it is import6ant to us now that somehow you have convinced any number of sites that your technology is acculrate and they are determining other thigns based on it. i have to say i'm not convinced. thats a lot of comments to miss. Is there anything y ou can do about it?

I was truly a huge fan of what you were doing. ...a year ago. But the lack of interest in accuracy is telling.i will cheer for your success like all the rest but this is a major problem and i have a hard time believing it is limited.

we are on the typepad system but domain mapped to www.towleroad.com

Please advise.

IF I call this URL:
http://api.postrank.com/v1/entry_stat...

And POST these values:

&url[]=http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Deysca/~3/329747930/&url[]=http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/spaetzel/~3/326933691/&feedId=816&feedId=102049

I get back 4 items, but I only gave 2 URLs

I have installed the Reader extension, but all ranked items are "1.0" or, rarely, "10"... let me know if you'd like any more info. Thanks in advance.

update - I finally ran into some items ranked with other numbers, from Lifehacker and Huffington Post, and more than a few hours old. User error on my part?

Is there anything that could be done to improve the PostRank results for "aggregator" feeds like this one?
http://feeds.adobe.com/xml/rss.cfm?qu...

AideRSS seems unable to accurately calculate an effective PostRank for this feed.

Why don't folder items have PostRank and Filtering Support?

Why don't I see PostRank & Filtering for All Items in GoogleReader with the AideRSS Firefox Extension?
