I've been astounded at how rare it is for a search API to offer date information. I talked to Gabriel about the problem many moons ago, and even with their significantly greater clout (than a random dude working on a tiny project that uses search engine APIs), and despite asking for it, they couldn't get that info from their partners. So, it's good to see they finally made it happen with Yahoo.
But, I thought the Yahoo BOSS search API was gone, and the only way to use Yahoo search was basically just a black box sort of deal (i.e., you pass them the query and they hand you results, which you display as yahoo sent them). I'm not sure I understand what DDG is doing, and when you'd hit those Yahoo results. It's especially convoluted since Yahoo gets its results from Bing, right?
