I'm not acquainted with RankScanner, but my educated guess is that they use one of Google's (many) authenticated APIs[1] for search/content categorization/ranking analysis.

Thanks. I was under the search impression that this was only for building your own internal search. do you know how much the pricing is?

There are some prices listed here: https://developers.google.com/custom-search/json-api/v1/over...

These seem to be for products in a slightly different domain than plain old search, though.
