just what wordmuse already mentioned. Plus, it could be used for ranking search results by relevance (I hope)

As I already said, I think simple list with frequency would be enough (and much easier to implement), the graphical output doesn't add any further value to this feature imho, this is where I disagree with wordmuse who states that "there is something very powerful in the tag cloud"

OK, but here's where I get tripped up on this request. Mind you, I am nor against it, per se. I just don't get it.
In search engine results, the relevance is expressed in the order the results are displayed.
If I understand this request this gives user keyword statistics within each item returned by the search criteria.
So why do I care how many times the keyword is expressed in each item?
The only thing I would care about is if the list is ordered correctly, i..e the most relevant item displayrd @ the top of the list with some relevance statistic attribute which can be seen in a column in the search pane.
What am I missing?
