As Python is not really my mother tongue I decided to create a Java 6 version of the download tool for the search data in Google’s Webmaster Tools.

To run it follow these steps:

1. Unzip the archive into a directory of your choice
2. Modify config/wmt.properties to match your needs
3. Run either run.sh (you’ll need to make it executable) or run.bat

Currently the application is not very flexible, it will always download data for all your verified sites for the last 30 days.

The files will be downloaded to the directory you defined in the properties file. By default it will download all types of search query data. If you want to reduce the amount of files being downloaded, change the list of download types in DownloadFiles.java and recompile.

I tested it on Ubuntu 11.10 and Windows 7.
