Just a stat check to do when you are bored !
This is nice to do, on a boring tuesday post-lunch work session.. 
No doubts about those ranked above me, but then I am wondering about some people, who I think should have got a better rank on popularity basis than me. 

I am still trying to understand how this is worked out -> "since people keep wondering, your 'popularity rating' is the probability of a user clicking on random Friends links to be at your profile page at any point in time. That's the essence of the PageRank algorithm—it's a traffic estimate based on the Web's link structure. It's presented on a logarithmic scale to make it easier to understand."

May be its all about how diverse your friends' list is ?? !!

He hee he
I just saw this -> vibharaj does not exist! You must not be in our database. If you just recently got your first LJ friend, our crawler might not have picked you up. If you recently renamed your account, try the old name. Of course, it should go without saying that you should check for spelling errors.

Ha, even I didnt actually get what it really means.. I guess its a score which gives you an idea of how popular you are. i.e if you have a diverse friends list, your journal page has a better chance of being hit by a friends friends friend etc.. So in taht way, you are popular.

Its based on Page Rank algorithm, on which google is based upon ..

The PageRank concept has proven to be vulnerable to manipulation,So - if u r clever enough - u can still prove urself popular.. :P
Therez one more called HITS algorithm - Hypertext Induced Topic Selection (HITS) is a link analysis algorithm that rates Web pages for their authority and hub values. Authority value estimates the value of the content of the page; hub value estimates the value of its links to other pages. These values can be used to rank Web search results.

I feel really absurd posting in this topic! I came across you through another journal, was attracted by your user icon. I have added you as my friend. Will be glad if you add me too. :) :D
