The idiot in question its me

From what i have understood the public CREST will allow to retrieve some general eve data as the old api .
( if you need more specific data, ie: market orders, you will need to have a developer subscription to get an auth token )

Suppose now i want to get the average market prices of items .

If a do a simple GET to : http://public-crest.eveonline.com/market/prices/

I receive a json string with some objects in it, in particular the "items" array will contain entries like :

{"adjustedPrice": 197165.96, "averagePrice": 196611.81, "type": {"id_str": "32772", "href": "http://public-crest.eveonline.com/types/32772/", "id": 32772, "name": "Medium Ancillary Shield Booster"}}

If my previous statements are correct ( ? ) :

- http://public-crest.eveonline.com/market/prices/ is this really the public crest market for TQ ( i mean it is already 100% working) ?
- during DT this page it is acessible ?
- i dont need real-time data, but how often it is updated ? ( i know there is rate limit on public crest )
- the average price it is the same "ESTIMATED VALUE" we have in-game ?

thanks in advance .

fly safe.

thank you steve for the answers !

The market related resources available through the public crest are pretty reduced , anyway at the moment the http://public-crest.eveonline.com/market/prices/ api can satisfy my personal needs .
