Great site, guys! I just discovered it tonight, due to p1mpage in l All Luck l's gamertag (He's #1 right now in Backgammon).
I had an idea for a feature that I think would be pretty cool for your site. You could make a "Rare Achievements Leaderboard." This would be a page for rare, but attainable achievements, like Zuma's "Sharp Shooter." Currently, as far as we know, only one person has this achievement: OWD. This page would list all gamers that achieve it, in the order that they got it. This would serve as a sort of "elite" list.
There would also have to be some consensus as to what constitutes a "rare" achievement. Maybe if only 10, or 25 people have it, it's still "rare." After more people than the cutoff allows get it, it's no longer rare, and would be removed from the page, or maybe archived, so people can still see the first 25 people who got it.
I don't know if there's a way you can scan the xbox.com site automatically and figure out who has a certain achievement. Maybe you could limit it to members here on the site, who have their Live Gamertag listed with you. Then you could use their tag to check the site, and see what achievements they have. Maybe someone could write a script that does this automatically, I don't know. I guess it would be a chore to do it by hand.
Oh well, that's my idea. Take it or leave it!
