I am seeing normal traffic on my app.  I started using a 3rd party tool to 
track my stats (Andlytics app on Android - free, with a donate key option) 
in May.  Since I have been tracking, with a few exceptions, my download rate 
has been steady  

Of course, I probably am not effected by the changes in the search 
algorithm, since my app doesn't show up in search results anyway.  

I can type the exact name of my app, and it doesn't show up in search 
results at all - at least not in the 1st 10 pages of results.  I don't know 
how people find my app, but luckily, they do. I know my app has common 
keywords (I wouldn't expect it to show up in searches for "Droid") but if 
you type an exact match of the name - I think it is reasonable to expect it 
will appear somewhere in the search results.

Bottom line, my stats are the same after the algorithm change, but I am an 
edge case.

Anyone else notice that every thread on this board eventually ends up being 
a discussion of all the things that are disastrously wrong with the Android 
Market.  More important, do you think anyone at Google notices? (...I 
already  know the answer to that question).  

There is a bug titled: "Developers: Applications missing from Android 
Market" @ 
http://www.google.com/support/androidmarket/developer/bin/static.py?page=known_issues.cs
 
--> feel free to star this issue if you would like something done.
