The results under "Here are few websites with similar visual scores as yours" were especially amusing for my site.

I've received a score of 26 and the similar websites were:

- Generic unstyled XML Access Denied document.

- Google account log in page.

- Generic unstyled "Your request has been blocked" text.

- "Please verify you're a human" HTML error message.

- Random JSON error message.

I entered my personal website, https://merely.xyz . That website is served with a single request; perhaps it's been classified as an error page because of that?

I tested https://gildas-lormeau.github.io/ (score 56) which is also a single request website. Almost all the websites with similar visual scores are okay for me.
I also got a 26 for a site I entered. It was a bit confusing because 26 happens to be a fixed point, the site gives you a score (26% of users will like your site) and also ranks you among all the sites people have entered (you scored higher than 26% of all sites entered).
i absolutely love your website.
