awis

A python script that generates a custom url and query string used to query Amazon's Alexa Web Information Service (AWIS).

####if pip or easy_install doesnt work just because of failing to import other packages then please do run the following command

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

###Sending a UrlInfo request

>>> from myawis import *
>>> obj=CallAwis('www.domain.com','ResponseGroup',Access_Key_ID,Secret_Access_Key)
>>> obj.urlinfo()

###Sending a TrafficHistory request

>>> from myawis import *
>>> obj=CallAwis('www.domain.com','History',Access_Key_ID,Secret_Access_Key)
>>> obj.traffichistory(RANGE,START)

NOTE: RANGE and START are optional if not present then it would use default Range=31 and START=20070801
