Technorati won't even let me list some of my blogs. From day 1 one of my blogs has never been able to be claimed. Thus another problem with technorati. I have emailed them 5 or so times as well as posted on their website. No response.

It was supposed to read: a fellow blogger has even found a way to <a href="http://www.jonlee.ca/an-evil-way-to-increase-rss-stats" rel="nofollow">game the RSS stats</a>. Lets face it. there is no GOOD way to rank websites. That didn't work out as planned. It was supposed to read: a fellow blogger has even found a way to game the RSS stats.

(and thanx for the linkage) Alexa and Technorati are kinda useless right now since everyone is gaming them, one alternative would be to manually change the prices of the reviews on reviewme. Or, like you wrote, the folks at reviewme could ask for a plugin or tracker to be installed, or they could even develop a "reviewme stats plugin" and require the publishers use it to be included in the program. As for the Viral Link thing, well we both agree on that! :) My blog even got included in a virallink matrix, without me asking for it, I asked the blogger to remove my link, but by the time my link was taken off that matrix, 20+ other bloggers had already copied the list... so even if I wanted to rely on Technorati, my technorati rank is now totally useless.... I'm wondering (and hoping) if a lot of bloggers will pick up on this, it would be good to see some changes at reviewme and the other advertising networks, as it would be more fair for everyone Right on the money Kevin!

It will certainly get some attention from the Advertising networks. As it should. It was like everyone was thinking it but did not want to open it up. Great topic of choice.
