Is there a web application that will analyze a public news group for top posters over a specific period of time? The more analysis the better!
Note: While it is public, it isn't listed on Google Groups.

I know that Marc Smith did research into analyzing and visualizing newsgroup activity while he was at Microsoft Research. I don't think it was a webapp, but it was called "Newsgroup Clouds". I have no idea how he gathered the data for analysis -- if he was subscribing to the feeds over time, or if he could analyze a new newsgroup on demand. |

There's a list of Newsgroups here, clicking on each one brings up some statistics, but not top posters unfortunately. |
