del.icio.us hack sack sought to count links to an entire domain, not just one page in the domain

Since you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting! The next game tournament is coming soon, fill out the contact form if you'd like to be notified.

itsdEx is looking at the integration point of del.icio.us.  We’d like to be able to count all links under a domain, instead of just for a specific url via the method of http://del.icio.us/url/check?url=itsdex.com.

Chime in if you’ve seen this done or have the hack already figured out, or if you are jazzed about just the simple count of the number of links to the top level domain.   The next integration point that will be completed is Yahoo! backlinks, a great metric of the social popularity of a website.

If you are an API hacker, itsdEx is developed in Rails and we can provide you with RESTful methods so that we can add more data sources into the game.  The Big 3 are already covered, Alexa, Compete and Google.

In the meantime, show your support of the itsdEx cause to bring you the most fun instant web stats on the planet, then bookmark us on del.icio.us or on on a personal favorite, ma.gnolia.com.  Or email social@itsdex.com if you have any questions and would like to interview itsdEx for your blog.

Official blog of itsdEx is alive by derek on August 29th, 2007
The itsdEx official blog is alive and kicking, as you can see since you are reading this post.

Does itsdEx now give you instant stats from Alexa, Compete, Google and Yahoo!?

itsdEx version 2.0 is on the way, with fast and fun instant web sites from ALL of your favorite source. Version 1.0 of the game was Alexa only, and now we’ve expanded that to include Yahoo! back links, Compete, and Google PageRank!

You still get an instant valuation, and the next game tournaments are firing off in September. In the mean time, you can get an instant quote on any domain you’d like. itsdEx will hit you over the head with instant stats, so that you can see the Google PageRank, Alexa climbing or declining stats, Compete’s data or the number of Yahoo! backlinks.

You’ll also get an instant valuation on that domain. The social popularity of a site is factored into the final valuation. itsdEx valuations were within ten percent of the acquisition price of both YouTube and MySpace!
