I'm an open source advocate (even for search algorithms in general), but ranking algo/model is inherently adversarial and gameable until true search AI (always correctly identify good and original content without false positives) is feasible.
I think it would be a good revenue strategy, if they charge $dollars to display top 10 positive features and top 10 negative features of any given query-document pair without any real weights/scores (maybe re-squashed with some logistic function). The $dollars amount is computed dynamically to offset the negative impact of the partial reveal of the ranking algo/model. This can be a tremendously useful tool for troubleshooting search results by site owners.
