Is there a way to access item prices in the manner it works with the Hiscores (for example, like this), or at least a quick way to get the price instead of loading the whole page? I'm pretty sure it's possible, judging by the High Alch w/GE Compare Calculator here.

Got down to page 3 so I believe I'm eligible to bump this (?).

Which language/application?

 

You can use cURL, google docs, excel, etc to achieve this.

The way its done:

 

 

 

Make a code get the page for a specific search.

 

 

 

Tell the code which table, and which cell in said table is the data you want/need

C#. I already did it, the problem is that it takes a lot of time to load (72 pages for the specific application, 1-2 seconds each).

If you use the right codes it don;t take long at all.

 

 

 

If you are making the code load the entire page THEN cutting out what u want its a waste as you laod the entire page.

 

 

 

You want to combine the codes so it cuts out what you want WHILE loading the page. Coding it in a combined way means it knows what its looking for in the code so instead of loading the images etc that other codes command it can ignore them to pull out what you are after.

I don't load the actual page, but just the code behind it (around 17kb). Loading them up to the price point reduces the size by 3kb, which is still a problem.

 

I'm mainly looking for a sort of indexing site or service that can reduce or eliminate loading multiple pages.

You miss my point.

 

 

 

you ARE still loading it.

 

 

 

with the right codes you DO NOT LOAD it, you simply grab the code up to a specific reference point then return that value.

 

 

 

This method only requires a couple of bytes of data to be transferred.

If you're using Windows, you can use Swiftkit to do it for you. Sign onto an IRC channel and type in "!ge ".

 

 

 

If you're using Linux, you'll probably have to write the code yourself.

Okey dokey. I'll try to find a way around in. Thanks for the help.
