See the problem with this screenshot of the Number 1 top ranked UK user by public contributions?

Clearly using automated commits to generate the "Abolish ICE" in the rice field display and no substantial projects.

And at 18,000 commits nearly twice the commit count of the Number 2 user at 10,000 commits, which also seems very unlikely...

Perhaps there should also be an automatic exclusion on wildly different numbers from the standard distribution one would expect in a large randomized population?
