-                      PHP Sample for Alexa Top Sites                   -

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

This sample will make a request to the Alexa Top Sites web service 

using your Access Key ID and Secret Access Key.

Tested with PHP 5.3.2.

Steps:

1. Sign up for an Amazon Web Services account at http://aws.amazon.com

   (Note that you must have a valid credit card)

2. Get your Access Key ID and Secret Access Key

3. Sign up for Alexa Top Sites at http://aws.amazon.com/alexatopsites

4. Uncompress the zip file into a working directory

5. Run

    php topsites.php ACCESS_KEY_ID SECRET_ACCESS_KEY [COUNTRY_CODE]

Country code is optional.

If you are getting "Not Authorized" messages, you probably have one of the

following problems:

1. Your access key or secret key were not entered properly.  Please re-check

that they are correct.

2. You did not sign up for Alexa Top Sites at

http://aws.amazon.com/alexatopsites (This step is separate from signing 

up for Amazon Web Services.)

3. Your credit card was not valid.

If you are getting "Request Expired" messages, please check that the date 

and time are properly set on your computer.
