There are many media outlets that claim to tell you who the hottest or most popular pornstars in the world are—but most of those lists rely on reader polls or staff picks; not hard, indisputable science and statistics. Enter FameRegistry, a website that generates a monthly list of the world's most popular pornstars, using an algorithm that compiles data from a wide variety of sources (Google searches, MySpace friends, and Alexa ranking, to name a few) to scientifically determine who among all the world's pornstars is truly the greatest. It's no Extreme Pornstar Showdown, but we suppose it'll do. So who made this month's top ten? Check below, and see what science has to say about porn.
