### Size
The most basic parameter for filtering is `size` that is used to limit the number of results returned. In the previous request that returned the Eiffel Tower (or 'Tour Eiffel' to be exact), notice that other results were returned including "Bureau de Gustave Eiffel" (a museum) and "Le Jules Verne" (a restaurant). To limit a reverse geocode to only the first result, just pass the `size` parameter:

Each result returned has an associated confidence score. Currently confidence scores are calculated based on the distance from the result to the supplied `point.lat` and `point.lon`.
