GET /v1/domain/similar-sites3 credits / requestcache 1440 min

Websites similar to a domain, found by co-citation in the Common Crawl domain-level web graph: the sites that link to the domain also tend to link to these. Up to 50 similar domains, each with a 0-1 similarity score (a cosine similarity of their sets of referring domains, so huge sites do not win on popularity alone), the number of shared referrers, its 0-100 Gridlode Authority score and rank. Ubiquitous domains (social networks, CDNs, search engines) are left out. Domains that are not in the graph, or have too few referrers to compare, are free.
