Nice! Siddhant: Another problem to watch out for is the feedback problem: someone clicks on a link and it automatically becomes more interesting, so someone else clicks, and it gets even more interesting... So you need some kind of suppression. For example, as individual clicks get older, you can push them down. Or you can put a cap on the number of clicks used to rank the query.
