Traffic and Lensrank - Follow-Up

The other day, I discussed how total traffic cannot be the only factor in determining a high ranking in the Top 100. Today, I wanted to follow up in my non-scientific analysis to revisit some randomly selected lenses to see how traffic stacks up against other lenses in the Top 100.

For an interesting comparison, I will show the same lensrank from both days, with a comparison of the seven-day, total week traffic and current lensrank. These are NOT necessarily the same lenses! The listing in red is the lens and associated lensrank and traffic from the other day. Today's ranking and associated traffic is in green. I've added a few lenses to the mix, so the previous day's visits are not easily known. You'll note that some lenses seem to be getting LOTS of traffic -- those visits are bolded. For the most part, these lenses with lots of traffic are hitting the topicability index for what's hot in the news or for the past holiday of Valentine's Day. Those lenses one would normally expect to be in the Top 100 overall.
