At present, Find_Orb shows the mean (unweighted) residuals from the orbit fit. This is mostly just to replicate what people are used to. Showing the mean weighted residuals and applying the chi-square test of significance would be more useful. I've written code to compute the incomplete gamma function required for this, so it shouldn't be a big deal.
