Fetch Google Pages Indexed Using PHP and AJAX

Here’s a quick and dirty solution I threw together to fetch how many pages of a site google has index. I needed this for one of my control panels, so my work group could track this and other metrics on the fly.
gpindex.php
<?php // Some arbitrary access code so not everyone can access it. Not "real" security :) if($_GET['accessCode']!="some_password") { echo "Access Denied"; exit; } $site = $_GET['site']; $gurl = "http://www.google.com/search?q=site:"; $curl_handle=curl_init(); curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_URL,$gurl.$site); curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT,2); curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); $buffer = curl_exec($curl_handle); curl_close($curl_handle); preg_match_all("#Results(.*)of about <b>(.*)</b> from <b>$site</b>#",$buffer,$matches,0); echo $matches[2][0]; ?>
And here’s the Ajax via jQuery that is used to fetch the information:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/patch/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function(){ $.ajax({ url:"http://www.example.com/path/to/gpindex.php?accessCode=some_password&site=example.com", success:function(d){$("#googleIndexed").html(d+" Pages");} }); }); </script> <p style="font-size:11px;">Indexed on Google</p> <p style="font-size:11px; font-weight:bold;" id="googleIndexed">( Fetching Data )</p>
