Bing Search API : how to search for exact domains/websites?

I'm using the Bing API to check the popularity of certain websites.

For example: 'www.microsoft.com' gets millions of results, while 'www.blahblah.com' gets only a few.

Now there is a problem that Bing appears to not search for exact domains.

For example: 'www.this-domain.com' also gets results for 'www.thisdomain.com' , which is not what I want. Also it finds results that simply have 'this domain' on it!

Even with single or double quotes around the domain, it doesn't seem to matter.

Is there a way to let Bing only search complete and exact domainnames ?

Add site:www.microsoft.com to the query, rather than just the domain by itself.
