Dear Fergus and dear authors of Chess Variant Pages,

perhaps I have not fully understood the Chess Variant Pages and do not know the possibilities that the system offers. Nevertheless, my question:

Is it conceivable - or already realized - to derive a ranking of attention or interest from the frequency of hits on a variant page? Such a possibility would be very helpful for the authors from my point of view to be able to recognize the appreciation of a variant.

I do not mean the Recognized Chess Variants in alphabetical order, nor the variants marked with 'hearts'. I have in mind a ranking in numerical ascending or descending order based on hits.

Did this already exist, so am I too late or is this an interesting approach?
