    WOT offers API?

    Hey mates.

    Does WOT offers 3rd-party-API like? If I want to put rig something that will pre-screen all the incoming email to my office for links, and check those against WOT, is there a (cool, legit, non-eula-offending, not-being-an-ass-about-it) way to do it?

    (payed or unpayed service, not really an issue).

    Thx.

    Yes

    Yes, WOT has an API. As an example: this url shrinker uses the WOT API: www.shuurl.com

    If you want more specific details, I'd better quote WOTs own policy:

    Esa: "We have an API for using WOT reputation database. The API is not publicly available because we want to manage who uses our data and for what purposes. This is our policy, and it is based on our experience from the early years.

    We handle all applications to use our API case by case.
    The following aspects are important:
    - commercial / non-commercial use
    - competing with / complementary to WOT
    - providing value to WOT community
    - increasing the value of the database
    - presenting WOT brand
    - helping to grow the WOT community
    - reciprocity"
