I imagine you're referring to the Top Producer list at:

  http://www.mersenne.org/top.htm

With the longer list at:

  http://www.mersenne.org/top2.htm

These are update MANUALLY.  Lately it has been about
every other week.  At the bottom of the list is says when
it was "last updated" -- June 06 is the latest I've seen.

On the other hand, the list at:

  http://entropia.com/ips/tops.shtml

is updated every hour.  However, it only counts time through
the IPS.  This won't matter since you joined recently, but
"old-timers" will have more time on the former lists.
