About These statistics
----------------------

"top ten subjects by number of posts"
This is based on the total number of posts for a given subject line.   
All tags such as "Re:" and "[Sca-cooks]" are automatically stripped  
from the subject line so they can be properly tallied.

"cookbooks most often referred to"
This is a simple count of the occurence of a given text.  The search  
is case insensitive (capitalization does not matter).  Spelling  
however does count.  The texts being checked for are as follows:

      "Harpestreng"
      "Koge Bog"
      "Forme of Cury"
      "Liber cure cocorum"
      "Two Fifteenth-Century"
      "Book of Nurture"
      "Good Housewife's Jewell"
      "Good Huswifes Handmaide"
      "Delights for Ladies"
      "NEVV BOOKE of Cookerie"
      "Proper newe Booke of Cokerye"
      "English Housewife"
      "Enseignements"
      "Viandier"
      "Vivendier"
      "Menagier"
      "Du fait"
      "Ouverture"
      "von guter Speise"
      "Eberhard"
      "Inntalkochbuch"
      "Rumpolt"
      "Welserin"
      "Liber de coquina"
      "Libro di cucina"
      "Wel ende edelike spijse"
      "Libre del Coch"

"top ten posters by number of posts"
A simple count of the number of messages sent from each email  
address.  If a list member posts using more than one email address,  
each address will be counted separately.

"top ten posters by message size"
Content here is the total number of letters for all the email  
messages sent from an email address, ignoring text marked as quotes  
or as a signature.

This script attempts to account for the most common ways email  
programs mark text as being a comment or signature, but does not and  
can not manage to catch them all.

"top ten posters by message size (non-quote)"
The quote ratio is the same as the sizecalculation above, but  
subtracting the number letters in any quoted lines of text.  This  
means that a poster who quotes lots of text and gives short answers  
may have a negative score.

"Top Scoring Posters"
The score is calculated by adding the rank of individuals in the "top  
ten" lists above (with 1 = 10, 2 = 9, etc...), adding 1 for each  
appearance on the "longest words" list.  An extra 19 points is added  
to the final number in order to prevent negative values from showing  
up on the list (i.e. "swag").
