Revision 34dba098-7670-40d1-8df9-9558af2b69f2

This [Soapi.JS][1] script, if abused is likely to provoke frowns from those whom you would like to see smiles.

Note: the dataset is only valid if the entire user base is pulled, and on just about any other site there are far too many users for the execution to be even remotely considered non-abusive or even remotely useful.

So - bottom line is: you could have figured it out yourself, so no harm in me posting it.

Let's just say it is an example of how to get cached/throttled paged results from the api with JavaScript.
