orderby Method used to order entries. Options are relevance, published, rating, and viewcount.
Because viewcounts wield so much power in search rankings, they are a contentious subject among YouTube uploaders.
Another 10 seconds on Google brought me this answer from a YouTube employee via Quora: “YouTube employs proprietary technology to prevent the artificial inflation of a video’s viewcount by spam bots, malware and other means.[…]”
A viewcount that’s frozen at 300 is one of the great success indicators of a project being launched through YouTube. It means it’s being viewed so often, and shared so frequently, that YouTube has to check that nothing dodgy is happening.
Although he doesn’t have the same viewcount as some of the other players on this list, EVO 2013 runner-up Robert “ICWobbles” Wright is worth checking out.
