New description:

 Currently (sage 5.6), Sage generates the posets on n elements by
 generating all digraphs with n vertices and checking which of those give
 posets. A paper of Brinkmann and McKay gives an algorithm for generating
 posets which they used to generate posets up to 16. Sage uses a related
 algorithm of McKay to generate the digraphs.
