How do you get Top 100 Results on Ask.co.uk?

I know it might sound silly but how do you get the top 100 results from ask.co.uk using the url?

On google it is as simple as adding "num=100" to the end of the url but it is not obvious on ask.

I know we can do it by opening up the options and selecting top 100 results but does anyone know how to do it by adding something to the url?

Thanks...

Quite simply type &num=100 to the end of the url

For example a search for liability insurance you would see a URL as follows:

google.co.uk/search?q=liability+insurance

...this would only show the top 10 as default. If you add your "&num=100" to the end as follows:

google.co.uk/search?q=liability+insurance&num=100

...this would show the top 100.

The "100" can be replaced with however many results you want (within Google's allowance).

Thanks but going back to my original post, I know you can do it from the user options/preferences but wanted to know if it was possible by adding something to the URL ???
