similar to the much-discussed-elsewhere http search trick, which figures out the top 100 websites according to PageRank, here’s the top 100 CGI scripts according to PageRank. They’re incomplete, since only scripts with “cgi-bin” in the URL will show up, but hey ho. The top ten:

• 10 : The SEC’s EDGAR archives

• 9 : RIPE Whois

• 8 : The c2.com WikiWikiWeb

• 7 : UCSD Webster gateway

• 6 : Altavista

• 5 : US census lookup (ahead of Altavista, how the mighty have fallen!), and their population clock

• 4 : Internic’s Whois

• 3 : OAndA’s currency converter (a classic)

• 2 : The Babelfish

And the winner is:

• 1 : Search Verisign Whois records

boo.
