Actually, "we" have lots of those.  I use several dozen myself.  As long as
they're private, mostly domain- or system-specific, and not readily forgeable,
then they work fine. 

And in those cases, flagged with tflags nice, the hit frequencies ranking
algorithms work just fine for me. 

Questions to the devs: If the simpler ranking algorithm is used, should the IG
algorithm be removed from the program? 

If the IG algorithm is used in specific cases, should it be replaced with
Quang-Anh's suggestion for those cases?
