I deal with MLSs regularly as part of my current job and this was the first thing that popped into my head when I read the parent comment. They are hell to deal with and we would pay a good amount of money to anyone who could standardize all of them and feed them to us in a consistent format.

Half of the time I spend debugging is on figuring out what is going wrong with different MLSs.

I also deal with MLS data and, on our end, it's in pretty good shape.

Of course, there is a whole department devoted to keeping it clean and consistent, so I don't have to deal with issues that you do.

Now that you mention it, perhaps we should provide an API for MLS data access.
