If you guys haven't seen this website yet, you should!
I'm sure we'll all disagree with a few of thier choices (what, no 6882: Walking Astro Grappler with the elusive black-suit space guy?!?) , but the page is definately worth a look.

Well it appears the rankings come from lugnet's database, so the data is from AFOLs. It may be a bit dated, but I'd say its otherwise sound.

Though I don't know about the point of the blog entry. With 229 sets, you may as well just list every set made.

Here is just the straight top-ten, as ranked on lugnet:
