This is good?
Your browser fingerprint appears to be unique among the 1,656,854 tested so far.
Currently, we estimate that your browser has a fingerprint that conveys at least 20.66 bits of identifying information.

Worst possible result. You want to blend in with as many browsers as possible so your unique traces can't be used to track you when you are behind things like tor.

I tried, with IE I got the same bad results as chico... came back through tor and got 1 in 6,000 or so... I pretty much gave up on tor because my location makes it slower than molasses... guess I'm just not gonna get much privacy here...

Strange... I normally use ie9 with defaut settings on a win7 machine. It seemed to show my (stock) windows fonts as the main factor. The only thing I can think of that separated me out is my location not having anyone else with my screen resolution and setup, so I wonder if location also was a factor with you... I did build my pc from scratch, and it has more than 3 monitors- so that's fairly unique. One thing- does it only compare with other people who have run the test, or does it somehow have real world statistics beyond the people who've clicked on their link? Maybe my setup is just really rare in my location among 1)paranoid 2) computer geeks 
This was an interesting excercise however, and thanks for putting it up...

No tor. Just firefox 3.6.18 and noscript.

That's the whole point of the experiment Chico. They are identifying you by other means, ip's have no bearing i think.
