  Most referrers do not contain search terms. You can't look at REFERER and infer it indicates the subsequent URL is correlated on a given keyword. If that's what you want, you write a parser to look at URLs, recognize human-determined search indicators (q=, s=, search=), and correlate the subsequent URL with the indicated keywords. Hand waving that this is "clickstream" data doesn't mean Bing is not looking specifically for Googled search terms and the resultant user selected URLs. I personally don't mind them doing it. I just think their post is non-responsive in hopes of persuading the non-technical reader there's "no deliberate copying to see here" when they're clearly intentionally ingesting an extraordinary volume of Google-keyword-to-Google-result data and using that data to map keywords seen only on Google to results on Bing. Flattery, etc.: http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2009/06/kayak-bing/ http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2009/06/kayak-bing/

    a general tokenizer might do the job.

    If Google analytics can scrape this data, so can bing. Google never answered if they are using clickstream from google toolbar / chrome or not. Check this simple script if you want same data. http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1680579&s=fdd795bae383cd3f8e2cf5ab4a26337c#post13526561 http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1680579&...
