well kiss my grits....

"A site that has a Link Popularity Score of 1,000-5,000 is considered average. A site with a Link Popularity Score of 20,000 is considered popular. Sites with a Link Popularity Score above 100,000 are Internet "Icons"."

well, ok.  great.  Check this:
Link Popularity Total 303,763

Does that make me triple iconic?  I find this highly bogus, especially as:
1) I am no icon.  Try Glenn Reynolds.  Iconoclast., sure,  Icon, No way.
2) The Google hit was zero.  Yeah, as if you know, more than half my traffic was fake.

1 Yeah, I was trying to be sarcastic on my post because I damn sure ain't an ICON. Straight White Gut and VMAN and some of those places that get a couple of thousand REAL hits a day are the ICONS. Hell, half of mine or from Google..somebody looking for fresh FXXXed 13 year old indian girls and stuff like that.

2 yeah, I don't get it either. I'm triple iconic too. And that's not me for sure. Most of my traffic is google stuff... people googling weird crap like "boy pee jello".

3 I'm almost popular - 18,500. Which makes pretty much zero sense

4 I think they fixed it. Caltech girl gets a score of about 1300 now. Just average.

5 heh. You're more than average! Yeah. The link popularity tool pulls data from each search engine remotely -- so we go thru some crazy periods where sites will be very high or very low. Generally works itself out in a few days...Or, I send a programmer in to see what the heck is going on. Enjoy.
