It may also be useful to order results by the number of pages that link to
them. For instance, a few minutes ago I searched for "company" (meaning
"business organization") and these were the first results:

1) Bad Company           (13 links)
2) Ford Motor Company    (200 links)
3) Hyundai Motor Company (64 links)

If we simply order by similarity we might get:

1) company (disambig)    (0 links)
2) Company (novel)       (0 links)
3) Company (magazine)    (0 links)

But most people would prefer this:

1) company (business)    (10000+ links)
2) company (military)    (2 links)
3) Company (novel)       (2 links)

Even without using similarity it would still be an improvement, i.e.:

1) company (business)    (10000+ links)
2) Ford Motor Company    (200 links)
3) Hyundai Motor Company (64 links)
