Whats the difference between the way Buy It Now and auction items are sorted in search results?

Buy It Now (or fixed-price) items are sorted based on recent sales history – how many have sold from a multi-quantity listing – as well as, relevance of keywords in the title, value, and DSR scores. We sort Items in the auction format based on ’time: ending soonest’ and DSR scores (items demoted if any DSR is lower than 4.4).
