Oooo... Can we get an average article ranking?

  Author here. This is something I wanted but I couldn't figure out a way to do it in a way that's meaningful. Authors like Simon Willison publish frequently, so even though he has a lot of high-scoring posts, he has a lot of low-to-no-scoring posts too. It feels unfair to penalize people who publish frequently just because not every post is a homerun. I'm open to suggestions! I'm almost positive Paul Graham would be #1.

    You could grab the top 10 posts by each author, and report the average score of those 10.
