Hi Raghava, To address your questions:
a) In the v13 version of the API (which is deprecated) you would use CriterionService to add Website criteria: http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/developer/CriterionService.html http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/developer/Website.html In the v2009 version of the API you would use the AdGroupCriterionService to add BiddableAdGroupCriterion objects with inner Placement criteria: http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/v2009/docs/reference/AdGroupCriterionService.html http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/v2009/docs/reference/AdGroupCriterionService.BiddableAdGroupCriterion.html http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/v2009/docs/reference/AdGroupCriterionService.Placement.html b) The report will include both keywords and placements. Placement rows can be identified by kwSiteType="WebSite".
