Not that I would suggest writing such a thing, but I did happen to look at the vote while httpfox was running. They seem to be using google analytics events to track the voting. There was also a request to scorecardresearch, but a quick look suggests that is just a general market research site. But with that said, they're not showing any results here. My suspicion is that the process for selecting the winner is something like "1)take a quick look at the voting totals to gauge public opinion. 2) Go with whatever some random manager in the marketing department likes best". Still, the fact that it even made the options to begin with is probably a positive sign.
