 Updates on the thetvdb site means the search request can return shows that
 are not in the best order.
 There needs to be a sorting algo to get the best show choice.

 I propose to add levenshtein text distance to choose the best match.
 This will mean a new python module python-levenshtein as a requirement for
 ttvdb.
