The ads should have a standard form, there should be 6-10 categories that you fill in, and the 'output' from the APA should be sortable by each of these categories. The details are relatively unimportant. As long as each ad has a few key characteristics clearly extractable, and the output is in a database/spreadsheet friendly format, enterprising folks can do the rest.
