    To tell you the truth I am an expert at google but never really cared to study Yahoo. But is Yahoo a manually ranked search engine by humans or does it use spiders and bots like google?

    Same technique as Google, though their algorithm claims to be different.

    Most search engines use Bots. The proof is in your website stats, you can see everytime the bots access our site. Now days they also use the toolbars to "spy" on people and the website stats.

    But don't you think Google profits more from adsense and adwords?

    Yes, like google, yahoo also have its own algorithm for SEO.
    Google spider or we can say crawler name is googlebot
    Yahoo's is yahooslurp
    and msn's is msnbot
