Take the following request:



http://api.search.yahoo.com/WebSearchService/V1/webSearch?appid=YahooDemo&query=madonna&results=2&output=json



In the results, you'll see the following:



"totalResultsAvailable":";33900000",

"totalResultsReturned":2,"firstResultPosition":1



The totalResultsAvailable is supposed to be a number, so why is the

search service returning it as a string? (note that neither

totalResultsReturned nor firstResultPosition are returned as strings).
