I think it would be interesting to know what percentage of chess.com players fall into certain rating groups.  You know, say by sets of 100points.  I assume there is a bit of a bell curve with players between 1150 and 1250 probably being the highest number whereas players between 1950 and 2050 and between 550 and 650 being far, far less.  Of course, many int he lower range may not be active players out of discouragement(if you are in this range, I don't mean to belittle you, everyone on here had to learn the game at some point too).  Is there already something on the site that does this?  It might make for an interesting blurb from the staff, maybe once a month or updated weekly, or something. 

A blog on this same topic for the different official chess organizations would be interesting.

The average rating is currently 1351: => http://www.chess.com/echess/players.html

* Mouse-over the link at the top right that says "My Home"

* On the drop-down menu there, click "Online Chess"

* After your screen loads in, find and click "View Players" in the menu at right.

* You will see the bell curve with ratings!

Thanks.  Found it.

I did a blog post on percentiles of the ratings distribution on Chess.com: http://blog.chess.com/ichabod801/online-ratings-distribution

Another interesting statistic would be the distribution of players whose ratings are higher (and how much higher) that the average rating of the people they have beaten and the average rating of the people they have lost to.  Someone might be a very strong player deceivingly rated 1300 because they only play 1800+ players and win two in ten.  Ah statistics!
