Ranking the American Idol 9 Top 12 - Michael Lynche is #1

For the third week in a row we have a new #1. First it was cougar bait Casey James (his Heaven performance is still taking on hits), then Siobhan Magnus (her Think performance is still popular) and now Michael Lynche is the most popular contestant on Rickey.org this week based on pageviews.

Crystal Bowersox is #2 for the second week in a row, while Didi Benami comes back strong at #3. (I'm glad you guys like Didi! My heart belongs to Didi!)

I've also added a third column to our rankings which takes all the rankings from the previous week and averages them. I'm averaging the "rank numbers" from the Top 24, 20 and 16 as opposed to absolute numbers. For example, Michael Lynch was at #19 on the Top 24, this would give him a rank of #11 for that week compared to the remaining Top 12 contestants.

For our average ranking for the past 3 weeks, Siobhan Magnus is #1. So according to Rickey.org viewers right now, she will win American Idol.
