The following is the second in a short series of posts which attempt to document the Sincerity Lab functionality. This will make more sense if you read the first installment before this one.

Available Data Fields
There are many data fields that may be used in the data filter and the chart type options. Below I try to briefly explain what most of them are. Some are more useful than others, but since I collected the data, I decided to make them all available.

To make the fit better in the chart space, some fields are plotted more conveniently using a log scale. The following correspond to some of the fields above except that they are reduced to their log10 value.
log10_avg_bandwidth, log10_life_bandwidth, log10_owned_vests, log10_delegated_vests, log10_received_vests, log10_post_count, log10_comment_count, log10_post_average_word_count, log10_comment_average_word_count, log10_comment_exchange_count
It can be useful to view some metrics in terms of where each account ranks against all the other active accounts. The following correspond to some fields above except that they are adjusted to show the relative position of the account. For example a rank of 1 means that the account has the highest value of all accounts. Where several account share the same base value, the rank shows an average of all rank positions occupied by the group of accounts.
rank_reputation, rank_owned_vests, rank_classification_human_score, rank_classification_spammer_score, rank_classification_bot_score, rank_comment_exchange_count, rank_average_bandwidth
Usage Examples
This one gives an idea of what it typically takes to become a top 20 witness.
Here are two charts for comparison, the first show the followers of my @andybets account, and this can be compared to the one beneath which shows the equivalent data for my @steemreports account. It's easy to see that steemreports has more accounts which rank higher in terms of Vested SP and Human Classification score. The unrelated points were removed from the graph by changing the sample size to 0%, which leaves only the followers.
This is a pretty one. It shows the average length of words used in comments and posts. The red points again indicate followers of steemreports. As expected, comments have slightly shorter words - nice post sir!
This clearly shows that most votebots are paid in SBD rather than Steem. The accompanying table lists the 25 accounts which have spent most SBD.
The relationship between reputation and transfers to votebots is shown here.
Here is a chart showing the relationship between the number of upvotes and downvotes (flags) the accounts are giving to others. It has been argued that the platform might work better if a larger percentage of votes were downvotes, but the absence of curation rewards for downvotes means such altruism is rare. In this case the red point identify accounts the @andybets is following.
This chart shows the outgoing versus incoming self-votes. Note that it is currently by count rather than rshares though, so may not be highly representative for your needs. Still I think it's clear where we'd like to see most accounts. When there is high density of points like in the bottom left, it can be helpful to reduce the sample size to get a better indication of the distribution.
That's all for now! There will more (probably shorter) posts in this series soon.

Thank you so much for developing the extension for chrome, and for working to stop spam on the platform. I noticed the comments from bots on users who just comment "Great post" on everything. Posting generic, repeated comments annoys the crap out of me and just seems like they are doing it to gain attention/credibility. Great work by you!
Thanks - it drives me crazy too! I guess that's partly why I started the project.

I must confess I am mystified at the fact there is a difference between outgoing selfvotes and incoming selfvotes. It would seem to my somewhat mathchallenged brain that both measures of selfvotes should match precisely.
Would you be kind enough to explain why there is a difference?
Thanks!
