Question

Mahalo is adding a tip to all questions that don't offer a tip.
How are the "Top Searches" determined on the Mahalo.com homepage? What are the sources of data used to rank them?
Love this feature cause it's a way to see all of the new news stories. But the data can't just be measuring Mahalo.com's traffic for these terms since many of the terms don't even have pages on Mahalo yet. Where does the list and data about how many people are searching for what come from? Is there a place I can see a couple hundred of these terms instead of just a few?
