Its a good idea to show publicly number of people that rated the site in question. Its a good idea. The more people rated, the easier it is for the visitor to determine whether or not to proceed visiting the site.
What if the rating is from one person only? If it were from 100, it would
be more sound and accurate. It would be more "fact" than one person's
opinion of the site.
Did you read the blog posting? Since ratings can be made anonymously, the number of ratings alone doesn't tell you if the rating is "sound and accurate". In fact, it could even be misleading. That's why the confidence value not only takes into account the number of ratings, but also their reliability.

mié 16 jul 2008 02:38:39 UTC — logicmanI am confident that deep7up is a spammer or spambot.
I have just rated that site as 'adult'.
It should show red-child unsafe within 1/2 hour.
Happy to help.
