Pardon me. I'm such an Froogle amateur, and I barely know anything about it; I'm hoping that I can learn a lot here.
Anyway, here's my first question. What's equivalent of site: in Google? Basically, what I want to find out is how many items/pages are indexed in Froogle from a certain e-commerce site.

store:yourstorename
Example:
http://www.google.com/froogle?q=store%3Asears&btnG=Search+Froogle
Use this in froogle, not google

Q1. Do you have to know the store name?
Q1.2. Do you have to go to the domain (for example, amazon.com), find out the store name, and then finally use the command?
Q3. Isn't there any way to list items just by providing the domain name instead of store name?

You need the store name.

You need the store name.
Ok, how do they specify store name in their website (Buy.com, Sears, etc)? Is that something Froogle picks it up automatically?

Try the domain w/o the .com and replace any hyphens with underscores.

site:www.sears.com also works - just remember to add a word "the" or "in" to get maximum number of products.

Not all the time, if I do that for my own site, nothing
comes up, and if I just put the URL, since my URL
consists of common words a thousand pages come up
with mine nowhere in stie.
site:mysite.com doesn't work
site:www.mysite.com sometimes works, usually not
store:mysite.com doesn't work
mysite.com doesn't work
www.mysite.com doesn't work
but
http://www.mysite.com does work, but doesn't bring up all the products, only 25 of my 140 products come up using this.
This has been little frustrating because I know a CEO with a fantastic sales volume for a pretty competitive product
area and I wanted to spy on him to see what he is doing
in froogle :)
