miRNA aligment with miRBase parameters

Hello all

I have been trying to replicate the alignment made by miRBase under their parameters, only to find that ncbi-blast is unable to do it since it only has a minimum word-size of 7 (and miRBase uses 4). Any thoughts on how I can do it? Also any suggestions when it comes to miRNA datasets alignment to miRBase?

At miRBase you could use SSEARCH to align short sequences to miRNAs. So maybe try to find standalone implementation of this.
