Sales Estimation Categories
When making a sales estimation request Rainforest will return estimated sales (based on an internal algoritm) for a given bestseller rank within a given top-level category.
The sales_estimation_category parameter determines the top-level Amazon category, in combination with the bestseller_rank parameter, for the given amazon_domain , that is used in to retrieve sales estimation data.
When specifying a sales estimation request using the sales_estimation_category and bestseller_rank parameters you are explicitely telling Rainforest to give a sales estimation for the specified bestseller_rank in the specified bestseller_rank top-level category. You can alternatively specify your sales estimation request by specifying an asin and amazon_domain and Rainforest will attempt to extract the sales estimation top-level category from the ASIN's product page.
See the sales estimation request parameters documentation for more information on making sales estimation requests.
