How do you find out quickly how many top 10's you have, without counting down row-by-row on the segments table? I must be missing something obvious here...

Look at the top-there's a graph. Hover over each bar to get the placing and number.

Boom! added a graph of your percentile distribution (in the Segment List's "Stats" expander thingy) e.g.: http://veloviewer.com/AthleteSegments.php?athleteId=306128
Is that what you were after? Useful?

Excellent Ben.

This is probably the quickest and dirtiest way to get a broad handle of one's abilility/improvements. The greater the slope down from the right, the better.

Just uploading my rides now so I can see what you're all talking about

 

[Sittingduck]

I have no idea of my slope is good or bad and still don't get the easy way to count 1-10 placings... I think I'm just a bit of a thicko
Anyway here are my graphs. No idea what they mean, though!

 

[400bhp]

Hover over the graphs and you can see the count of each bar.

 

[Sittingduck]

Yeah, I get that but how did you know the figure for all top 10's? Did you hover over each one and add them up manually?

Yes! all of 30s

Thanks - just assumed there was an instant stat that I was missing, as eluded to previously...

 

[potsy]

Shouldn't this be in the 'geeks' forum?

 

[400bhp]

You uploaded your rides yet Potsy. Are your graphs back end loaded?

 

[Ben Lowe]

That sites rather good, given Stravas own limited front end... Good job Ben

Since you know your way around the Strava API, is there any possibility of making some kind of Strava Stats image for forum signatures - I think it would prove rather popular and could get you a lot of traffic if thats a positive. Similar to the Xbox Live gamertag things or xFire gamer stats, even if it only periodically rather than live updated a users "Tag".

Not done anything like that before but always like to try out new stuff! I'll investigate and report back.

Just added a Cumulative view option on both of those segment "Stats" graphs. In that view if you hover the mouse over the 10th position you'll be shown the count of segments that you are placing 1-10. Obviously you can then do that at any position along the graph to know how many segments you have up to that position. Does that make it easier?

21% of my segment placings are in the top 10%.

I'm in the top half for 79% of segments done.

Something I will continue to review in future.

Yep - thanks!
