It's very WIP right now and will remain so for another couple
of weeks.  I'd planned to show more people a 'working' version
when a) i got a home for the page and b) the numbers its
producing have reasonable variance.
I'd prefer defering a public release until those goals are
reached.  You've given me one.  Hopefully in a week or
two I'll have the other.
So if you gimme webspace can i promise you code and
output shortly after?  If you want input into design I can
give you the code now with the understanding that it is
WIP.
