Popularity Count

Popularity Thing is all Wrong! Please try to follow this
closely. The popularity number is based on the number of hits
on your profile. As the profile hits go up, your popularity number
goes down meaning that your popularity has gone up. If
someone posts a rude, inflammatory or insulting comment many of us
will think" who is this idiot?" and
click on their profile. This will cause their profile count to go
up which causes the popularity count to go down which means their
popularity is up. Theoretically, this means that
over time the least popular person on the site could become,
(numerically), the most popular. To avoid this gross
injustice, I propose the addition of a Who is
this Idiot? Button to bring up an
offenders profile. Aside from bringing up the
profile, this button would subtract two hits from the profile count
and if you have been following, you know the rest. . Before
searching frantically for the Who is this
Idiot? button, please note that thiswas

Actually, the popularity ranking seems to be based on friends count. At least in the search function, sorting by popularity results in a strict ordering by that number.

How curious. I always thought it was based on both.
