I am writing a portion of an app that searches the marketplace for apps that meet a certain criteria. However, I wanted to know what's the default Google way of handling generic searches on marketplace. Google seems to have them in a random order. For example, search on "Ring". The following order is returned and not in any order sequence. I have included ratings, stars and downloads to help clarify my point. Does anyone have any information on the returned list order? Here is my sample:
1. Ring For Service - 2 Ratings - 3 Stars - < 50 Downloads 2. Page Ring - 39 Ratings - 4.5 Stars - 100-500 Downloads 3. Face of Ring - 44 Ratings - 4 Stars - 1,000 - 5,000 Downloads 4. Ring Toggle - 804 Ratings - 4.5 Stars - 50,000 - 250 Downloads 5. Apofa SMS (Lite) - 24 Ratings - 2.5 Stars - 1,000 - 5,000 Downloads. 6. GPS - a2b ~ Trial - 18 Ratings - 4 Stars - 500 - 1,000 Downloads 7. AstroClock Lite - 87 Ratings - 3 Stars - 5,000 - 10,000 Dowloads. 8. RingMe - 9 Ratings - 3 Stars - 50-100 Downloads --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
