Readability

Readability is assessed for posts published in the past ninety days using the Gunning-Fog index. The index is an indication of the number of years of formal education that a person requires in order to easily understand the text on the first reading.

You can see more readability stats by clicking through to individual blogs and checking out the sidebar.
