The tool compares the difference in rankings for a chosen keyword phrase between Google's SERPs and those for Yahoo!, Teoma, MSN Beta & the allin set of searches at Google. Thus, if your site ranks #1 at the latter 3 (+3 allin) and #500 at Google, it will have a high "sandbox" score.

The tool also compares your sites backlinks, PR & age against the median/average values of the top 20 ranking sites at Google and uses this data to raise or lower the score. For example, if the site above has a PR of 2 and the avg PR of the top 20 sites is 6.5, the "sandbox" score will be lower. The same applies to number of links and age (although in reverse - the newer your site in comparison to the top 20, the higher the "sandbox" score).

Thanks for your feedback!

Hello randfish, I get time-out errors,
Liked your previous/other tools though some of them require patience,
this one seems a bit heavy on the infrastructure and low with resources.
waiting for the solution...

It has been pretty fast for me - usually 60 to 100 seconds. If it times out, that's usually archive.org nor returning results. Remember that since it scrapes, it's not resource intensive at all (very few calculations to make), but it is subject to the speed of the sites it checks. As I look at the server load, it appears to be causing no stress at all, even with several simultaneous users.

Hopefully it will work better for you soon!
