[casual_games] Top Download List

[Ron]

Here is a list of the Top Casual Game Downloads I compiled.  This list is made up of the top downloads from Real Arcade, Yahoo Games, Oberon Games, MSN, iWin, PlayFirst, AOL and Big Fish.

The computed rank is horribly flawed in that is gives equal weight to all portals and who knows that these "top games" lists really are.  If there are other portals that should be on my list (or ones that should not), let me know.  I have to compile this data by hand, so I'd like to stick to the top 10 portals.  

If this proves interesting over the next few weeks, I'll start dumping it into a database that can be displayed on the web and queried.

The raw data file can be downloaded at:

If anyone has a better formula for computing rank, please let me know.  Math is hard.
