No, but can you explain the distance to Ankara one?
So say suppose you're in New Orleans and I am in San Jose, now we can compare our distance, because geographical distance usually equates to cultural differences and perceptions of quality.
For a decade and a half, Yandex has had a codename for each big revision of search ranking algorithms and release of new search features. Most were city names, and Magadan was one of them. So “distance” is probably a distance to some rating introduced in that release. Whether it is a positive or negative factor (cutting obvious over-optimized sites), I have no idea.
