In the traffic report/page "shades of red" currently show how hot the article
count is, that is, how recent the 38 posts to off-topic.pun in the last 24
hours actually are.

In the list of articles you get when you drill in there, "shades of red" show
the relative rating of the articles, or so I think (1).

Suggest that perhaps this is an overloaded color useage and instead of using
red, another color be chosen.

1 - I am not sure, when a new feature first appears, where exactly to go to get
a concise view of what the author thinks the feature actually does or how to
use it... it seems to usually appear in a post here, but while that's good
while the feature is breaking, it's not so great for the reader who comes to
Lugnet 2 months later and wonders how the feature works.

Classic programmer response: "that's doc, and doc is no fun, I wanna code."
