No guts there.

However, it should be noted that shopping.com has an affliate API program that can do the same stuff. So they have guts too, I guess. You can see the results of the shopping.com api at http://routercomp.com . I actually spent a lot of time with the version 1 Yahoo Shopping API as well, but it wasn't monetizable and the database had a lower quality of data, and there were a few bugs in the API.
