Mahalo treasure hunt: Find top five questions ever answered.

Top five most answered questions.
Top five most viewed questions.
Top five most interesting votes questions

Please don't include contest questions.
Tip for best answer: M$2.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

This is a difficult question to research, and the answers I'm about to give could change - as they are based on a snapshot in time. My answer will not take into account any future votes, answers, or viewings.

@djammmer - again did you have to write a script or something to filter out these answers?

I missed on.

This should be the 3rd Most viewed answer:

3) 7649 views - Is Michael Jackson dead or alive?
http://www.mahalo.com/answers/music/is-michael-jackson-dead-or-alive

That should slide my original answers from 3+ down by one.

I listed a couple extra for each bucket, because I was unsure if this question was a real Mahalo content, or a different type of contest:

Wow wish that add extra tip thing was effective now. Sending you a little something something just for your great answer!

Yes Jeff, it would take a really long time to get the viewed pages 100% accurate. I'm possitive I'm right on the other two, however. The reason I missed the Calvin & Hobbes question, is because it isn't marked as an interesting question. I had to decide a way to slice my result set - and more most viewed, I decided to look at questions w/ >1 interesting question votes. I could go back and look at all the questions, but it will take awhile to run.

@djammmer - I knew this is a difficult question, but I also knew that someone will come with an answer. Thanks much.

I would expect mahalo team take some initiative to provide these interesting features along with so many other features that we have been asking for.

So how did you filter out these answers? The number of views might increase due to this question, and thus changing the order.

Great answers, I am interested in learning how you filtered this out.

I do want to mention the "Most Viewed" is inaccurate, I know there are dozens of questions that have over 10,000 views. For example this one from Dec. 08 about Calvin and Hobbes has over 28,000 views.

It's almost impossible to find the answers to these questions, since many questions are being asked and voted on. I did however find the top most question with most interesting votes. And that was http://www.mahalo.com/answers/Mahaloian/top-earning-mahaloian-of-the-week-showcase-jkepler this was in the Mahalonian of the week section. It had 9 interesting votes.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Hi @stanar,

I think the problem is that, as far as I know, there are not methods available for Mahalo users to really come up with the answers to those questions.

It would be interesting to know who's question had the most answers, views and interesting votes, but unless a Mahalo staff member were to pull up the information, I doubt that it is going to be possible.

So I think the question is interesting, just not something that is possible to answer (unless Jason comes around to do so)
