#xpath ⇒ Object

Alexa may sometimes return a result for the incorrect site and thus it is necessary to check if the results returned are for the site we want.

For example, slocourts.net returns results for ca.gov, presumably because www.slocourts.ca.gov redirects to slocourts.net. Clearly something is wrong with how Alexa handles this case and so in the event this happens we treat the results as if there were no results.
