Quick question: What's the definition of "Top"?
Is it the most pageviews? If so, your top list is going to become stagnant since putting something on the homepage is going to give it a disproportionate amount of views.
Suggestions would be measuring clickthroughs to amazon or disregarding clicks from the front page in a list's rank or (my preference) a time-based ranking that would always eventually shuffle the top lists off the from page. There's an example of that here: https://gist.github.com/724443/eaee0121e4085bcd8c8a5f47a79c36150b2e3803 https://gist.github.com/724443/eaee0121e4085bcd8c8a5f47a79c3...
When testing those kinds of things I like to implement more than one and see which I like best personally over the span of a couple of days and then split my population based on userid and see which drives better engagement. Of course, in your case I would suggest just making some "secret" urls (simply unpublished) like http://www.7bks.com/home/time http://www.7bks.com/home/time and http://www.7bks.com/home/amazon http://www.7bks.com/home/amazon that you can check out and see what you prefer compared to the current home.
