I wonder if the Wayback Machine people are using a (potentially more modern) version of the AOPIC algorithm to decide what to archive. I wrote an article about that algorithm (which is similar to the original PageRank, but simpler IMO), and stated that a service "like the Wayback Machine would probably use something like AOPIC." It would be nice to remove that first like from the sentence!

No, Heretrix doesn't really do any ranking as it crawls, it's all up to a cleverly chosen seed.

AOPIC looks to me like it's roughly the same as Yahoo's iterative pagerank algorithm, but I didn't look at it that carefully.
