"Top Rated" can be done simply or not simply. Simple: choose an average (say 2), subtract it from all ratings, and then just ADD every single rating. That way if one post gets 5 "4"s, 5*(4-2)=10. If another post gets two "5"s, 2*(5-2)=6. The one with 5 fours is higher. If you choose 3.5 as the average, the two "5"s are higher. And this means "1"s and "2"s end up being negative... I won't go into not simply. Please just use the simple additive thing. BE SMARTER THAN AMAZON.
