Backlinks are the result of doing a search with a query like "link:www.google.com". The number of returned results indicates how many sites point to that url.
PageRankr.backlinks('www.google.com', :google, :bing) #=> {:google=>161000, :bing=>208000000}
PageRankr.backlinks('www.google.com', :yahoo) #=> {:yahoo=>256300062}
+
+If you don't specify a search engine, then all of them are used.
+ # this
+ PageRankr.backlinks('www.google.com')
+ #=> {:google=>23000, :bing=>215000000, :yahoo=>250522337, :altavista=>137000000, :alltheweb=>74500000, :alexa=>727036}

+ # is equivalent to
+ PageRankr.backlinks('www.google.com', :google, :bing, :yahoo, :altavista, :alltheweb, :alexa)
+ #=> {:google=>23000, :bing=>215000000, :yahoo=>250522337, :altavista=>137000000, :alltheweb=>74500000, :alexa=>727036}

+You can also use the alias `backlink` instead of `backlinks`.
Valid search engines are: `:google, :bing, :yahoo, :altavista, :alltheweb, :alexa`.
### Ranks
PageRankr.ranks('www.google.com', :alexa, :google) #=> {:alexa=>1, :google=>10}
+
+ # this also gives the same result
+ PageRankr.ranks('www.google.com') #=> {:alexa=>1, :google=>10}
+You can also use the alias `rank` instead of `ranks`.
There are two valid rank trackers supported: `:alexa, :google`.
Alexa ranks are descending where 1 is the most popular. If a site has an alexa rank of 0 then the site is unranked.
Google page ranks are in the range 0-10 where 10 is the most popular. If a site is unindexed then the rank will be -1.
