McConnell's 50/90 approach makes a big difference in my opinion because it lets you encode your uncertainty. The extra math means you don't need to be good at estimation as long as you know roughly how bad you are at it.

If that seems like too much effort, I also run quotes.vistimo.com , which takes a similarly (if slightly more advanced) statistical approach, but does all the math for you.
