Secret AdSense API
Randy discovered something very very very secret :
There exists a private API in Adsense for retrieving ads via XML. This would allow a customer to completely customize the look of the ads and avoid the Ads by Goooogle appendage entirely. The API is RESTful, extremely lightweight and includes some very interesting options like returning only adult ads. If I try to use the API, it fails (Forbidden) because my host IP address does not have access.
Well, I hope you figure it out, Randy, cuz the ads by gooooogle is like the only thing bothering me with the ads by Google.

I’m wondering if there is an API for the Adsense statistics, so you could have something like the Feedburner FeedCount.
How do the Adsense Widgets work?

Really interesting I think that if google open that API to the customers it will increase the number of ppl subscribing to it.
Please let me know if you have additionals info i’d like to write a post on my financial blog : http://financialfeed.blogspot.com/

Cordially
