General UPS shipping calculator question

I'm just curious as to the process on how your cart calculates the ups shipping cost if you use the cart shipping calculator. I know that UPS raises theirs costs for next day shipping as it gets closer to xmas. Are these costs calculated dynamically, i.e. via a UPS api or something, or are these costs calculated based on static information?

Re: General UPS shipping calculator question

In the BuyNow module settings when you select shipping calculator the cart calculates dynamic real time rates using either UPS, USPS, FedEx or Canada Post rates API.
