    After validating today weight went to 0. But my site is still showing ads - any ideas?

    Same for me. I did not check my account for a while, but today I logged in only to find my weight went to 0. Ads are still showing up too.

    So, apparently this is a google api problem that should correct itself shortly.

    The same here. From 24k down to 4.5k down to 1.2k and at last 0. That happened within hours and not just a moment. I'm not sure if this is directly an API key issue.

    After hanging around with my weight cut in half (down to the 20k range), it finally came back up yesterday to over 40k. Today it dropped, and dropped, and dropped..... to 0 :(

    Sometimes weight can be very stressful. ;) I think Shawn purposely does this to mess with our minds. j/k

    Currently my "master" account has a weight of over 2k. When I first logged in a while ago it was 0, then I revalidated and it came back. All of my other accounts, which point to the master, are at 0. That's over 4k worth of weight not available. Perhpas when the API isn't working right it should just go by the public PR numbers so weight doesn't go all the way to 0.

    My weight has been cut in half on the past few days too. It has just started to climb a bit. Google is doing strange things once again too. I used DP page rank tool and my site still has the same PR but now it says I only have back link.

    Seems that way - I'm using the API key for some other 'stuff' which isn't working right now. Wondered if I'd hit the 1000 query limit (might well have done) so I tried to create a new one..

    "Our servers are temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.

    We apologize for the inconvenience."

    Does bring up the question (again) about the possibility of dampening the effect of API 'issues'. Not sure it will look too good when you lose 500K in weight suddenly, and then (hopefully) suddenly gain 500K in weight.

    Well - seems to be working again now :)
    Now I just have to go thru all my accounts and revalidate...
