Im not sure if this is breaking any rules.  Apologies if thats the case
however, im using mythbuntu and you can change the order of the youtube
results to relevance by editing

/usr/share/mythtv/internetcontent/nv_python_libs/youtube/youtube_api.py

and line

# v2 api calls - An example that must be customized for each target site
self.config[u'urls'][u'video.search'] = '
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?vq=%s&max-results=%s&start-index=%s&orderby=rating&Ir=%s
'

to

# v2 api calls - An example that must be customized for each target site
self.config[u'urls'][u'video.search'] = '
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?vq=%s&max-results=%s&start-index=%s&orderby=relevance&Ir=%s
'

I find this to work much better.  My wife likes to search youtube videos for
horses and under the default search the results are returned under the order
"rating".  The first 4 videos are about the halo game, the next a johnny
cash video and next half dozen are not really related to the 4 legged
animal.

Changing this to be sorted by relevance helps.
