I am a real big fan of http://www.webmasterbrain.com/prog
Yeah, they did a nice job with that one. It looks like Google too.
There is a tool out htere that calculates how many links of a certain pr you will need to get into the top 10 in google. I lost the address, anyone have it?
With some ingenuity, you could use my [url=http://www.thinkbling.com/prlinks]backLink checker[/url] to look at the number and type of backlinks of the "Number 1 site" and the "Number 10" site of your competion. The above Search with PageRank results could also be of some use.
i've seen the one that calculates future pagerank. it doesnt work that hot.
It would be very difficult to make a program that took in a search statement, analyzed the 10 ten results and then showed you what you needed to get in the top 10 position. The reason it would be is that hard is because of the sandbox effect, not all backlinks are known and nobody knows the exact algorithm.
It's all guessing because you don't know the actual algo calculations. Mostly these types of tools are for fun.
I challenge anyone to find an example where the PageRank Calculator isn't almost exact.

Im also wondering what the address is again.
