Hi there. I looked around in the knowledge base and the discussions and didn't see anything related to my question so I'm asking it now. I'm developing a c# web app for my own use and was using some test data. Basically I was searching for "star wars" to test out my screens. Last week I was receiving the main star wars movies at the top of the list. Now I'm noticing that I'm only receiving 19 results back for this search, period. When I search the web front end you provide there are about 6 pages and missing content appears there. I'm using the .net front end for your API and I recently downloaded it. I guess my question is: do you throttle the results somehow or is something else going on?

My search for
star+warsreturns 56 results.Keep in mind, API requests are cached and depending on what the popularity boost at the time of the caching was, you could see the odd movie bump up past the actual Star Wars films. The reason you won't see the same results on the website is because the website results aren't cached, they're real time and some movies might only temporarily be boosted by popularity.
