I think it should be based on installed hacks, or by the number your hacks has been downloaded, or maybe by vote, it will be more accurate and will stimulate code hackers to write better hacks, instead of 9999999 hacks.
i like the current one.... it's logical
I think it would be more logical if you write a good functional hack, that has been downloaded 10000 times, rather than 10 hacks of cosmetic modifications.
What would be the difference between having 2 installs on 30 cosmetic adaptions and 50 installs on one good hack? Doesnt seem like making it go by installs would be much different?
