Good stuff. Do the factors vary based on keyword search vs top in category? Because of the broadness of the category, I don't think my app has much chance of hitting the top ten in the category. I think "keyword relevance" is in play, though I believe it is a binary check and doesn't necessarily affect the order. Also keyword search seems to be the only place where paid and free apps are mixed. FWIW, my paid license comes up ahead of the DEMO version in the keyword search. Much fewer downloads, fewer ratings, but high percentage of active installs (since its paid), better average rating (~5 vs ~3.5).
