It would be nice to make the names clickable.
I don't think the list of pg alternate account is accurate. I checked a few. They have many oneliners that is typical of pg, but the topics and style don't look similar.
I searched a few more and got better results. :)
I searched myself (that I know that I have no alternate accounts). I recognize a few users that are interested in similar topics, and I discuss/upvote them many times. But I didn't recognize most of the user of the list.

It's based purely off frequency of the 200 most common English 1 word phrases, 2 word phrases, 3 word phrases, 1 character sequences, 2 character sequences, and 3 character sequences. Topic does not really have anything to do with it. If I had more time I probably would've done a smarter model that accounted for things like that.
One is also a mathematician. It's trivial that we overuse some technical words even if it's unnecessary.
Another is form Argentina, so I guess the native language leaks, for example using words derived from latin that are not idiomatic.
And there are a few more, that is a honor to be "confused" with, but I have no clue why.
