Oh no, I meant how reliable are "web polls"?  If your clients are
intelligent they mayn't put much stock in your statistics and if they
think the site has been nandored ("Perl can't possibly be that far
ahead of Java!") they may totally discount them.  Or worse, they may
think that Perl sucks so bad that it *needs* someone to bias polls in
its favor.
