Why not suggest it?

Because that's all talk and no proof.  I'd need to study up on a whole crapload of statistical theory, to make sure everything is all right, and then provide them with some solid maths.  And I really can't be stuffed doing that.

Oh, and that also might be quite computationally intensive.  I mean some anime have like 50000 votes on it, and lets say you have 100 anime in your list that matches... sounds heavy.  Although since I'm not much of a programmer, I can't really say for certain (ask Zinga), but it's probably not that viable.
