Dead elephant gets a ratio of 0.59.
Ah thanks. Quotes it is, although it will under report.
"Dead elephant is sexy" gets none, as does Harrold Shipman.
Steve buscemi does better this time. 60/935000 = 6*10^-4
Jeffrey Dahmer gets 4/264000 = 1.5*10^-4
Jay Leno gets 112/4.7million = 2*10^-4
Brad pitt gets 14700/17.1 million = 8 * 10^-3
While not falling foul to the dead elephant problem, I'm still not happy with it methodologically. This is probably the best information we can get without searching for all the variants of "X is hot".
Hmm, this might make a good small web app, a more advanced version of google fight that looked for relative popularity of adjectives.
Not quite the same, but Googlism is sort of a simple version of that. Also, I suspect a trolling element in the Jeffrey Dahmer page you linked, although that could be optimism at work.
