Hi David,

I tried out both v201109 and v201206, and they have different result. Given 
that RelatedToKeywordSearchParameter is also not supported in v201206, I 
used RelatedToQuerySearchParameter instead.  For v201109, the global 
monthly search estimate for the keyword shoes is 68,000,000 where as for 
v201206 is 4,090,000. That's more than an order of magnitude difference. 
Please let me know whether I did something wrong. A migration guide would 
be really helpful.  I included soap requests and responses for both 
versions below.  Please let know if you need any additional information. 
 Thanks.
