Very misleading. Does not account for point inflation over the years (when a 15 point article or comment was equivalent to 230 points now.) There is not much one can infer from simply dividing points by days registered.

Maybe we need to find out the average point total of the top 20 comments (separately, articles) for each month before calculating anything else. Would pg or the search.yc guy(s) be able to calculate these numbers?



SearchYC doesn't scrape the user pages containing the account creation date. We could generate numbers based on days since the user's first post, though.
