snippet filter If multiple documents contain identical titles, as well as the same
information in their snippets, only the most relevant document of
that set is displayed in the results. Default: enabled. When a search
filter is enabled and removes some results, the search results output
indicates that results were filtered.
Automatic filtering: duplicate
directory filter If there are many results in a single web directory, then only the two
most relevant results for the directory are displayed. An output flag
indicates that more results are available from that directory. Default:
enabled. When a search filter is enabled and removes some results,
the search results output indicates that results were filtered.
Automatic language filter:
Limit search to a specified
language, as determined by
the majority language used in
the web document body Automatic language filter. Possible to override using the lr query
parameter and Boolean operators.
Number of search results By default, ten results appear. Possible to override with the num
query parameter.
Sorting results based on

and PageRank technologies to sort results by relevance.
