Understanding what you write

Once again my skills at finding all sorts of weirdness has cropped up with the discovery of a webpage which has a neat little Web Text Readability Tool. According to the tool, it is supposed to measure how easily it is to read something and how advanced a level the reader must be to understand the text in question.

If you want to give it a try, click here

Oh, and for the curious, the scores for this post (only up to the click here part) are:

Flesch-Kincaid Reading Ease: 40
Ideally, web page text should be around the 60 to 80 mark on this scale. The higher the score, the more readable the text.

Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level: 16
Ideally, web page text should be around the 6 to 7 mark on this scale. The lower the score, the more readable the text.

Gunning-Fox Index: 25
Ideally, web page text should be between 11 and 15 on this scale. The lower the score, the more readable the text. (Anything over 22 should be considered the equivalent of post-graduate level text).

Apparently, my post made little sense to people. :)
